Sir
Marley Turlock is a scientist that has always been more interested in his
inventions than women. That is until he meets Lady Persephone Hargrieve,
granddaughter of a Duke and daughter of a Hunter. It’s not just the fact she is
beautiful with a shapely figure. Oh, no that wouldn’t’ be enough to turn
Marley’s attention away from his work. Sephy happens to have a similar sense of
humor, a quick mind and loves tinkering with machines. Marley is a goner for
the first time in his life. And when he finds out that monsters are real and
they attack her home which her father is defending it’s up to Marley to keep
her safe. His world has been turned upside down, but he doesn’t lose his head. Figuratively
or literally.
After
finishing the Legend Chronicles trilogy I was happy to see this short where we
get to see Marley meeting his love, Sephy. While it is short it doesn’t lack in
character, plot or pacing. I just wish it had been a bit longer, but then what
book fan out there doesn’t wish that about every favorite book they read?
Marley’s story is a prequel to the trilogy and I recommend reading it before
though reading it after does no harm. I just think it’ll have a bigger impact
if it’s read before.
