This is such a weird romance but it suits me so perfectly. I really enjoyed the story itself and the blending of regency and fantasy, but honestly my favorite part was Puck. It's such a fun device that adds a lot of comedy and also watching them actually grow to care about them when they are supposed to be objective was really fun. I think without it some of the characters could be thin but since it's coming from a third person POV that doesn't really get humans it works. I had a lot of fun and would love to see more of this.
