A 21-year-old seems to slip through time on an exchange trip to China and ends up in a time period and land not known to any of our history books. Aside from the fact that there is a language barrier and open hostility due to her foreignness and dark skin, she also has to contend with the fact that she is all alone in a strange, magical, ancient empire with no way home in sight.
One moment away from being executed, she catches the eye of the 17-year-old Crown Prince and is forcefully given to him as a concubine. Despite her reservations and modern ideals, she has to go along with it to keep her life... despite the fact that he is already married to the Empress' niece and has a sickly son she is forced to act as nanny to.
As she desperately tries to figure out how to get back home, she slowly falls in love with the Prince, his son, and his people. But politics is a dangerous game; all eyes are on the throne. A target is on her husband's back, threatening to catch anyone he holds dear in the cross hairs.
Join Mercy as she battles a jealous wife, conquers dragons, bonds with an adorable little boy, and becomes the most powerful and beloved woman in the empire with only one person above and and ten million below.
Warning: This is a book set in an ancient time period where people don't have the same mindsets, values, and morals as modern times, including but not limited to: marriage, women, race, and the value of human life. It will reflect as such.

Salvage ~ V1: Nuts and Bolts (Steampunk/ Gaslamp Romantasy ~ FxM, MxM)
A Steampunk/ Gaslamp Fantasy Romance set in the industrial revolution era of a fictional world. Magic, mad science, multicultural ambiance, and political intrigue all tightly laced up into one corset and powered by the steam of two romances - one F/M and one M/M. For mature audiences, 18+. ~~~*~~~ All creations carry a trace of the maker's ethereal energy, whether deliberately placed in the magical Artifacts made by the Alchemists, or unwittingly left in the handiwork of ordinary people. Kazia can feel that energy, in both machines and people. She may not be able to do any of the grand magic other Alchemists can, but give her a damaged machine and she can trace its energy to the problem, and know precisely how to repair it. She does have one other ability. One far more dangerous. One she will never acknowledge, and will never use. Fleeing her villainous father rather than becoming his pawn, Kazia finds a peaceful life on a farm in a neighboring country, where no one knows that she is the daughter of Prince Gorvan Devratha. But with war looming between her birth country of Valesk and her new home in Caedra, how long can that peaceful life last? She can be safe in the Caedran capital, among the Queen's Alchemists, but will anyone there trust her - especially the handsome but embittered Lord Kelvaran Meratha, who suspects Kazia's father of murdering his family? Abrizhen is Kazia's older brother. He does his best to play the role of the Prince's good son and heir, but when tasked with retrieving his wayward sister, he must return to the city he'd called home for many of his youthful years. There he'll have to reckon with his past, and finally choose between the life of a dutiful prince, or the welfare of his sister - and the rekindling of an old flame. ~~~*~~~ Please see the introduction for detailed content warnings.Complete
