Chasing the Star Garden
An infamous poet
living in self-imposed exile.
An ancient
treasure about to fall into the wrong hands.Melanie Karsak's Chasing the Star Garden takes readers on a thrilling adventure from the gritty opium dens of gaslamp London to the gem-colored waters of the ancient world. Lily Stargazer, a loveable but reckless airship racer with a famous lover and shattered past, reluctantly plunges into a centuries-old mystery in a romantic adventure best described as Dan Brown meets Mary Shelley.
It all begins on one of the worst days of Lily’s life. She just lost the London leg of the 1823 Airship Grand Prix. To top it off, a harlequin fleeing from constables shoved a kaleidoscope down her pants, told her to fly to Venice, then threw himself from her airship tower. What’s a girl to do? For Lily, the answer is easy: drink absinthe and smoke opium.
Lily’s lover, Lord Byron, encourages her to make the trip to Venice. Lily soon finds herself at the heart of an ancient mystery which has her running from her past and chasing true love and the stars along the way

Chasing the Green Fairy
A recovering opium addict.
A messenger with life-shattering news.
With the 1824 British airship qualifying race only
weeks away, Lily Stargazer is at the top of her game. She’s racing like a pro,
truly in love, and living clean. But on one ill-omened day, everything
changes.
Pulled head-long into the ancient secrets of the
realm, Lily soon finds herself embroiled in Celtic mysteries and fairy lore.
And she’s not quite sure how she got there, or even if she wants to be
involved. But Lily soon finds herself chasing the spirit of the realm while
putting her own ghosts to rest. And only accepting the truth--about her heart
and her country--can save her.

At Rose’s Hopper, a popular London tavern frequented by airship
jockeys, all is merry and bright—except Lily Stargazer. Lily and her
crew are set to run the Christmas Day Yuletide Airship Race from London
to Calais, but not before spending the night swimming in mulled wine and
longing for absent lovers.
Even the prospect of a Yuletide win can't convince Lily that this
Christmas will be better than any that came before. But Lily’s about to
find out there really is a Father Christmas.
