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!



I received a complimentary copy of this ebook from June Third Enterprises through NetGalley. Opinions expressed in this review are completely my own.

A Duke for Miss Townsbridge

A Duke for Miss Townsbridge The Townsbridges, Book 4 by Sophie Barnes ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ /5 Sophie Barnes is a master at the novella! Every time I read one of her novellas, it is just perfect! Characters that are developed and graphics you, quick flowing plots to move the story and an ending to delight! As a duke, Matthew believes he should be able to marry anyone he decides on… and he decides that the perfect bride to fit into his unconventional life is his neighbour, Sarah. Since Sarah has never even met Mathew before his proposal, she decides that a courtship is needed before she make up her mind! I was was immediately invested in the non-traditional courtship between nearly on the shelf Sarah, and her reclusive duke for a neighbour Matthew. The determination and genuine personalities of both characters carries this book off effortlessly and would leave me wanting for more if the story had not been finished up so neatly! I adore a good romance novella and liken it to the perfect bite ...

White Knight Needed

White Knight Needed Reluctant Heroes, Book 2 by Betina Krahn ⭐⭐⭐⭐ /5 Barclay Howard is bigger and burlier than your average gentleman… and thus he has found himself to be somewhat of an antidote to the fairer sex. As a result he is more often found behind the pages of his Ivanhoe novel than out and about attempting to court a fair lady. But when his path crosses with down on her luck Norah Capshaw, his white knight complex rises up to make him go above and beyond again and again to be her hero… even though she is incredibly reluctant to the idea! This was a fun adventure romance filled with roadside hijinks, and a family mystery. Barclay was a perfect hero in this book. He was always there offering support and rescue to Norah. On the other side Norah’s resistance of Barclay and his efforts was the only wet blanket on this otherwise delightfully sweet romance!   Overall, this is my second Betina Kran book and I find her writing very light hearted and action packed.
