"The first of the ‘Unladylike Adventures of Kat Stephenson’, a funny, feisty 12 year old heroine that readers will really identify with"
A Most Improper Magick mixes Regency England (a la Jane Austen and Georgette Heyer) with a more contemporary feel of spells, magic and adventure. In this first adventure for Kat, when she should be sitting down like a lady doing her embroidery, she dresses like a boy, cuts off her hair and runs away to London in order to win her older siblings their true loves but along the way she battles highwaymen, sinister aristocrats, wild magic and even ghosts.

'I was twelve years of age when I chopped off my hair, dressed as a boy, and set off to save my family from impending ruin. I made it almost to the end of my front garden . . .'
Kat Stephenson has just discovered that she's inherited her mother's magical talents, and despite her Stepmama's stern objections, she's determined to learn how to use them. But with her eldest sister Elissa's intended fiance, the sinister Sir Neville, showing a dangerous interest in Kat's magical potential; her other sister, Angeline, wreaking romantic havoc with her own witchcraft; and a highwayman lurking in the forest, even Kat's reckless heroism will be tested to the upmost.
If she can learn to control her new powers, will Kat be able to rescue her family and win her sisters their true love?
