***Mild Spoilers***I loved everything about this story. Genny and Magnus are authentic characters with real chemistry between them, and real issues threatening their chance at a HEA instead of misunderstanding and melodrama. The supporting characters are fantastic, especially Rannulf and Alice, who stole my heart immediately. The steampunk enthusiast in me enjoys the airships, weaponry, and of course the mechanical mastiff, George. The krakens are an added bonus (c'mon, they're KRAKENS!), but I'm glad the true villains are not the sea monsters, but instead the sinister force using the sea monsters.All around fun read. This is the first story from Cindy Spencer Pape that I've read, but it will not be the last.
