Admittedly, it took me a while to get into this; the dialogue is rich - and therefore required that I flip back and forth to the (very necessary) glossary in the front of the novel... which is less fun on a Kindle than you might imagine...While I'm used to reading historicals, they're mostly set in the 1820's, or steampunk in the 1870s, so this was a big change; motorcycles and gaslamp and politics that I'm not used to...But after I got into the world, I really enjoyed this piece. A lot of fun. I love how flawed and honestly, somewhat annoying, Simon can be. And Michael is pushy and borders on being a pathological liar. Flawed heroes are so much more fun than perfect...The mystery was fun, made for a nice backdrop to set the relationship in, but make no mistake, this is primarily a love story, and a darn satisfying one at that. I look forward to the next installation.
