I have been reading historical romance for a long time, and yet. AND YET. I don’t think I have read a single one where the butler was anything more than a secondary character. Have I been missing a whole genre of butler romances? Because I loved it and I want more.

This was a really fun read, a lovely historical romance romp around with a very charming heroine and a butler with a somewhat murky past. I would highly recommend reading this if you want something light hearted and lovely to read. Think a less polished Julia Quinn.

Admitting my age has become a "thing," but let’s just say I’ve graduated from New Adult and am happily settled in the Contemporary Romance zone. When I’m not contemplating trading my jeans for some paranormal gear to flirt with demons or snuggle up to some fine-looking shifters, I’m busy being a mom to my incredible baby girl who keeps me on my toes. My three loves? Reading, writing, and chatting about romance, which I do non-stop at Under the Covers—where no one raises an eyebrow when I talk about my love of aliens and fictional characters as if they’re family.
