A woman of extraordinary talents...
Lusinda Havershaw turns invisible in moonlight--just her, not her clothes. She can't help it or prevent the process; it just happens. The descendent of a rare race called the Nividimi, her ancestors have been burned as witches, persecuted and tormented as the devil's children. She must be careful to avoid detection. However, as her family has no other means of support, Lusinda reluctantly sheds her corset and petticoats during the full moon to prowl the gas-lit streets of London, stark naked, as a thief for hire.
A man with a dangerous mission...
The only tools British spy and master safecracker James Locke needs are his hands and his brains. But when a hand tremor threatens his mission to secure a stolen list of agents for the Crown, the accidental discovery of a lady thief with an extraordinary secret may just be his salvation. However, as James and Lusinda discover, there's more than one kind of trouble to be found in the moonlight. The kind that begins with blackmail and ends with a kiss...
"MacMeans' second novel is ingenious, humorous and intoxicating. Cleverly blending the paranormal with the sensual and suspense with a passionate love story, she fulfills readers' fantasies" Romantic Times magazine, Top Pick! review
"Donna MacMeans has a knack for emotional writing." Romance Reader at heart review.
Award-winning, Bound By Moonlight is a Victorian paranormal romance. MacMeans is known for her seductively witty and humorous historical romances.
Played against a backdrop of The Great Game, the political conflict between Russia and Great Britain for ultimate control of Central Asia, the hero must learn to trust the heroine who is of Russian descent. Lusinda has her own worries. While in her invisible form, if she stays inside too long or if the moon slips behind a cloud for an extended period, she starts to become visible like a ghost. It's not easy having this extraodinary gift, or is it a curse?
It is the intention of the author to continue the "Bound By" series, but currently Bound By Moonlight is a stand alone book. The book includes a glimpse of her forthcoming forward time-travel, Charming the Professor.
