Have you read the Parasol Protectorate series by Gail Carringer? Alternate reality/romance/steam punk all rolled into one and hysterically funny to boot. Victoria is a young queen of England. Vampires, werewolves and ghosts are "out" in society. Main character is "soulless" which means something quite different from what you usually find. I thoroughly enjoyed them and am waiting eagerly for the fifth book in the series.

Also the Temeraire series by Naomi Novik. The Napoleonic Wars fought in the air as well as on land and sea. Aerial Corps of dragons. Good stuff.
