Noblesse, devoir et autres balivernes

The Regency setting provides such a rich backdrop for both societal expectations and romantic tension. I'm curious whether this era was chosen for its romance tropes or personal interest.

The witty banter and lighthearted scenes made the story so charming, but I wondered if that was planned to offset the more emotional stakes.

The social decorum rules felt central to the plot — would shifting the class dynamics alter the story's themes or message?
