That Potent Alchemy (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781775300335)

Is his love her safe place to land...or just smoke and mirrors? Grace Owens danced her feet bloody to become the finest en pointe prodigy of her generation, but the only accolade she longed for-her father's approval-never came. Finally, broken and defeated, she cut ties and fled to London to live life on her own terms. Now, after four years as an actress in London's smaller theatres, a last-minute production change lands her right where she never wanted to be again. Front and center in the ballet-and back in toe shoes. From his perch on the catwalks, machinist and stagecraft illusionist Isaac Caird can't take his eyes off Grace. A woman who wears men's clothing, but not as a disguise. An exquisite beauty who doesn't keep a lover. A skilled dancer who clearly hates every pirouette. The perfect lines of her delicate body inspire him to create a new illusion-with her as the centerpiece-that will guarantee sold-out shows. Maybe even attract a royal's patronage. But first he has to get her to look at him. And convince her the danger is minimal-especially within the circle of his arms. Featuring a gender-fluid ballet dancer, an amateur chemist who only occasionally starts fires, and an old rivalry that could tear them apart.
