The story bounces between the past where we learn about the gods and goddess and the present which, from the character names, food and cultural references, indicate this is set in Japan. The urban fantasy setting I found very endearing, particularly when the FMC finds herself there.
This is a really enjoyable solid fantasy with a beautiful romance woven in.
A gem!
