Thank you, Eugene Teplitsky, for this radiant cover! |
Juliet loved growing up at the seaside,
although it meant lonely hours chasing after the other beach rats while her
mother worked as a seamstress. Juliet never expected her seaman father to
inherit a fortune and move the family to New Addison City. Suddenly her mother
is a socialite and Juliet is best friends with a strong-willed girl who
actually likes her. When Juliet’s new friend welcomes her to the Runners, a
gang that has plagued the East Coast for years, Juliet sees it as the
opportunity to fit in, learn tricks, and make eyes at one of the hottest
members. What the gang does isn’t really wrong…right? She’s used to being a
pawn for the Runners, but she starts to question what she sees as harmless fun
when the gang uses her to attack a young officer.
Jonathan Montgomery vowed to end the Runners after they murdered his family. He joined the Riders, an elite police force dedicated to stopping the Runners’ crime spree. They have put him in New Addison City, but rookie mistakes follow Jonathan as he struggles to accomplish his goal, until a young woman feeds him inside information to bring down the Runners.
Between murders and secrets, Juliet will need to find her strength to help Jonathan, before the founder of the Runners crawls up from the sewers amongst her inventions to burn down the city.

Author info:
Jordan Elizabeth became obsessed with steampunk while working at a
Victorian Fair. Since then, she’s read
plenty of books and even organized a few steampunk outfits that she wears on a
regular basis (unless that’s weird, in which case she only wears them within
the sanctuary of her own home – not!). Jordan’s young adult novels include
ESCAPE FROM WITCHWOOD HOLLOW, COGLING, TREASURE DARKLY, BORN OF TREASURE, GOAT
CHILDREN, and VICTORIAN. RUNNERS &
RIDERS is her fifth novel with Curiosity Quills Press. Check out her website for bonus
