Kat, Incorrigible series.
In this second book (set in an alternate Regency England) Kat and her family visit Bath to avoid a scandal, but not before the enigmatic Lord Ravenscroft expels her from the Order of the Guardians. Devastated, Kat uses the little magic she knows to save relatives from wild magic, solve a mystery, and protect her sister's reputation. Fantasy and history mesh well in this fast-paced sequel.
