Hammer & Tongs

Isaiah emerged from the razor gangs of Birmingham as head of the notorious Chance Brothers Limited Company. Every victory is a new responsibility. Isaiah can’t be any less than perfect to keep the peace. He has no time for distractions, especially not his newest employee.  Brighid just wants to keep her head down and do her job. She’s been working as Arthur Bell for nearly a decade, and she’s been gone from Birmingham nearly that long. But her work is shoeing horses, and Chance Brothers have the largest stable this side of Cheapside. Better the devil you know than the Peaky Blinders, the Sloggers, and the Brummagem Boys. Even better, the most notorious Chance blushes when she so much as looks his way. But Isaiah isn’t the hardened criminal Brighid expected. The heat of their coupling melts Isaiah’s ironclad self-control. Brighid and Isaiah have kept themselves safe by protecting their hearts. Which of our heroes will come out on top?"[Brighid] had backbone and knew what she wanted. Brighid freaking went for it." -Goodreads
