I know it works well on Google Books, Ibooks and Kindle apps.
No--not the line-height. That's not the cover, that's essential to the Dropcaps, which I believe was discussed earlier in this thread.

Kindle apps render quite differently than actual devices. I'm not saying that this can't work--but it also needs testing at the KDP, because, as I previously mentioned, not all CSS survives that trip. I know for a fact that I had a client that came to us from another bookmaker, because he wanted this and that, and the other bookmaker didn't have the skillset; however, the other bookmaker made his book double-spaced, effectively--the line-heights.

I had to prove to the client that if he'd uploaded the other MOBI file at the KDP, that that fixed line-height would be REMOVED, entirely, and replaced with Amazon's default line-heights--because they strictly forbid messing with that. Yours is set a 1.2, which might skate, solely because that's the same as the default size, give or take a lie or two.
