The Twisted Tale of Stormy Gale by Christine Bell
I'm a time pirate—born in 1810, now a 21st-century woman. I travel through time trying to right wrongs without disrupting the fragile balance between what is and what can never be.

That's why it's vital that I go to 1836 and find the man who conned my brother out of his Time Travel Mechanism as quickly as possible. If the technology falls into the wrong hands, it could change the world as we know it. The notorious Duke of Leister definitely qualifies as the wrong hands. An amateur scientist of the slightly mad variety, he's bound to figure out how to use the TTM sooner rather than later.

I knew this wouldn't be easy. But I wasn't counting on him being as sexy as hell. Or winding up chained to his bed…

RRAH's THOUGHTS AND PONDERINGS: 4 Rose Read

THE TWISTED TALE OF STORMY GALE is a time travel, steampunkish romance novella. Dorothy, AKA Stormy Gale, is a twenty-nine year old time pirate, rescued from 1823 along with her brother by a kindly time traveler, who took them to the late 1990s. She and her brother spend their time stealing from low-risk time periods of the past and selling their spoils on Ebay so they can give money to food banks, shelters and the likes, in modern day America.

I really enjoyed Stormy’s voice in this first person narration. She’s full of modern day cliché and slang, enjoying it as perhaps only someone born in another time and place could. She also has heart.

When her brother, somewhat simple-minded Bacon, inexplicably loses his time travel device in a card game, she is desperate to rescue it, never realizing this effort would bring her face-to-face with her past and a love that could withstand anything.

A great humorous, sexy short read!
