Let me first start off by responding to rude prior reviewers who keep saying "This is only good if you like Harlequin..."Um, Hello - this is published by one of Harlequin's imprints.Also to those who keep wondering about the supposedly inconsistent historical details - this is STEAMPUNK.  It's not supposed to follow actual historical detail.  Steampunk is the Victorian era re-envisioned.  If you don't like alternate history, anachronistic technology and fantasy elements, you should not be reading this genre in the first place.As to the story, it's a nice blend of fantasy and romance.  I enjoy modern heroines in a historical setting and Amy was a fun heroine.  She was spunky without being over the top.  Lord Kendall was a little boring to be the hero but that was really my only complaint.I do agree that if the story was longer it would have been better. But this was a freebie and interesting enough to tempt me to try the follow-up which is a full-length novel.
