Author: Leigh Statham

Publication date: March 17, 2015

Genre: YA - Science Fiction > Steampunk 

Lady Marguerite lives a life most 17th century French girls can only dream of: Money, designer dresses, suitors and a secure future. Except, she suspects her heart may be falling for her best friend Claude, a common smithie in the family's steam forge. When Claude leaves for New France in search of a better life, Marguerite decides to follow him and test her suspicions of love. Only the trip proves to be more harrowing than she anticipated. Love, adventure and restitution await her, if she can survive the voyage.

Leigh Statham's Hopes and Dreams

I hope my toddler lets me sleep through the night tonight.

I dream of writing something beautiful that humanity as a whole can enjoy (see Harper Lee).

I hope America starts to fix the public education nightmare that we are living with today.

I dream of children everywhere being able to go to school.

I hope my kids like what I make for dinner tonight.

I dream of having a personal chef.

I hope Steampunk is the next Vampire craze.

I dream of laying around by the pool writing with perfect hair like Stephenie Meyers.

I hope my books help a kid somewhere feel better about themselves.

I dream of a world where compassion is king and bullies use their strength for good.

I hope I don't gain anymore weight or else I'll have to buy new jeans.

I dream of being an Olympic marathon runner. 5 minute mile. 5 minute mile!

I hope I don't twist my ankle before my next race. 11 min mile. ugh.

I dream of having grand kids.

I hope my kids grow up to be happy, whatever they choose to do. Whomever they choose to love.

I dream of the day when my husband and I are retired and can sleep in late and sit by the ocean all day if we want to.

I hope I always remember these crazy days of small children and writing deadlines.

I dream of having perfect grammar.

I hope no one finds out how terrible I am at spelling.

I dream of being a NYT best seller.

I hope one person's life is made better by reading my words.

About The Author: Leigh Statham

Website |Twitter | Facebook | Goodreads

Leigh Statham was raised in the wilds of rural Idaho, but found her heart in New York City. She worked as a waitress, maid, artist, math teacher, nurse, web designer, art director, thirty-foot inflatable pig and mule wrangler before she settled down in the semi-quiet role of wife, mother and writer. She resides in North Carolina with her husband, four children, five chickens and two suspected serial killer cats. If the air is cool and the sun is just coming up over the horizon, you can find her running the streets of her small town, plotting her next novel with the sort of intensity that will one day get her hit by a car.
