This box set contains the first three novels in the Mysterious Devices series of clockwork cozies set in the Magnificent Devices world: The Bride Wore Constant White, The Dancer Wore Opera Rose, and The Matchmaker Wore Mars Yellow.

In the Wild West, you always find more than you're looking for...

Daisy Linden is a young woman of gentle upbringing, some talent as a watercolorist, and firm opinions that often get her into trouble. Determined to find her missing father, in the summer of 1895 she sets out for the last place he was seen: the Wild West. It's a rude shock when her younger sister stows away on the airship—such behavior no doubt the result of her unsuitable friendship with Maggie Polgarth and the Carrick House set.

The search calls for greater courage and ingenuity than their sheltered upbringing has ever demanded, from outwitting a murderer in Georgetown to searching for a lost bride in Santa Fe, to avenging the death of a kind friend in the raucous gold-mining town of Bodie. They find help, loyalty, and even joy in new friends made along the way ... but most of all, Daisy and Freddie find themselves to be capable, compassionate, and courageous women. If only they were not always one step behind Papa ...

"Shelley Adina adds murder to her steampunk world for a mysteriously delicious brew! You'll love watching her intrepid heroine (and unexpected friends) bring justice to the Wild West while pursuing a quest of her own." —Victoria Thompson, bestselling author of Murder in the Bowery

If you like books by Gail Carriger, Deanna Raybourne, or Sherry Thomas, you're in the right place. These novels can be read as standalones, though there are threads of love and family running through them all. No strong language, just a very proper kiss or two and a satisfying solution. Enjoy!
