Cover for Heather Massey’s steampunk romance short story, A Knight in Shining Clockwork. The cursive, brown-texted title overlays a vintage painted background featuring artfully arranged details including clockwork gears, and blue-tinted spectacles.

A Knight in Shining Clockwork

When brilliant, down-on-his-luck inventor Alexander North meets Cordelia Rose, London's most infamous brothel abbess, he falls in love at first sight. Unfortunately, a glamorous woman like her is hopelessly beyond his reach. Unless his talent with automatons can win her heart, he is doomed to worship her from afar.
