Romantasy meets Bridgerton in this Victorian fantasy romance by USA Today bestselling author Charlie Lane.

An heiress on the run.

Diana Chester was never supposed to have magic. No women are. So when she inherits it instead of her cousin, she runs, seeking refuge above a potion shop. Until an infamous and irresistible alchemist proposes a marriage of convenience. Accepting him may be the only way she can live her life in the light once more.

A notorious alchemist searching for a wife.

Royal Alchemist Temple Grant is a metal magician who can bend iron with his hands. But after the king gives him a title, he needs a lady to help him navigate the icy social circles of the city's elite. Diana Chester, the mouse of a marquess's cousin will do perfectly. She needs someone to keep her safe, and while Temple can't cast glamours like the rest of the ton, he can do that.

A convenient binding, complicated by passion, made almost impossible by a city divided.

Temple never expects Diana's kiss to call to the life-giving heat in his core. And Diana never hoped to find love in the shadows. Love can bind them, but it might not be enough to bridge their dueling worlds.

Binding the Baron is book 1 in a spicy interconnected standalone historical romantasy series.
