The Footman and I

The Footman and I


The Footman’s Club Book 1

by Valerie Bowman


⭐⭐⭐⭐ /5


What happens when a couple of lords get into their cups while strategizing how to find a wife? A scheme, that’s what! In The Footman and I we are introduced to four friends that decide to help their fellow lord find a woman that loves him, not his title… and they will use a house party and dress up as servants to find a woman with a true heart.


But what happens when you find the love of your life while disceiving her as a footman… not to mention she hate’s what she knows about the real you??? Now the real work begins!


This was such a fun story of peer and lower classes finding an insta love match. I loved the banter between the the Earl in disguise come footman, Lucas and social justice warrior Miss Frances. These two made a great pair as a footman and a lady, I am eager to see if they pop up in the future books in their roles as Earl and Countess!


A sweet romance and simple courtship direct this book- if you are looking for hot and steamy liaisons, kissing will have to suffice. I will say that the limited steam did not distract from my enjoyment of their growing relationship and attraction. 


Overall, this was a good read and I’m excited to see what he other lords were up to while they pretended to be servants. The mutual respect and consideration the character showed each other was a delight! Truly, what’s the harm in one little lie about your identity, when you have learned and know the others heart!



The Footman and I by Valerie Bowman released June 30th, 2020 and is available now!

Court of the Vampire Queen

Court of the Vampire Queen (Omnibus rerelease of the Bloodline Vampires novella trilogy) by Katee Robert ⭐⭐⭐⭐ /5 Robert’s is widely known for her storytelling mastery when it comes to polyamorous relationships and this one delivers! COTVQ organically adds members to the relationship in ways meaningful to the plot and that add to the relationship dynamic as a whole. This FMMM relationship is steamy as all get out, but also integral. I admit I came to this book for the heat, but the world creation and mission these vampires set out out on together kept me interested in between key to scenes. One of the highlights for me was meeting our favourite demon Azazel as he finds his monster brides!!! Overall, this book had tons of blood and bedroom activity ( often at the same time), but it was also a transformative story for our would-be queen, Mina. I loved seeing her come out of her shell and find her own power and strength through her sexuality. The sex positivity and freedom was...
