A witch who has never broken a rule in her life falls in with the wrong sort of pirate. Charlotte Pettifer, prophesied to lead the prim, propriety-obsessed League of Gentlewomen Witches, collides with rakish pirate Alex O'Riley while stealing the same briefcase in the rooftops of an alternate Victorian London. When the long-lost amulet of Black Beryl surfaces, each is certain they've kidnapped the other into an uneasy alliance to find it before it falls into the wrong hands. Traveling the British countryside in Alex's enchanted flying cottage, butler Bixby in tow, the two spar their way toward an admission neither wants to make. Book two of India Holton's Dangerous Damsels series, a screwball, Wildean romp of magic, piracy and reluctant romance following The Wisteria Society of Lady Scoundrels.
