My rating: 2 of 5 stars
Kiphian Lord Avin is so demanding that he just can't keep a manservant. Human Dhalea is facing starvation for both herself and her two smaller brothers and so she works out a disguise to appear as a man and gets the job working for Lord Alvin. It's not going to be sustainable, but if she only stays for a month she will have earned enough money to cover them for the winter. But it is not easy - she has to hide her hair, use cardboard under her shirt to flatten herself, and use a rolled hand towel in her trousers. But Lord Avin is gorgeous and she is struggling to dress him each day and not touch him. Her only saving grace is that he has no idea she is a woman. She can tell he is attracted to her but he is confused as he senses his fated mate. So she is going to have to "man up" and tell him the truth.
Some of this story was quite good, but some of it was definitely in the realms of farce and Lord Alvin was just a spoiled brat with a mother who was just so OTT in her fawning of the potential Kiphian bride for him that I just stopped paying attention to her. I did, however, like Dhalea and her two brothers. Easy to read and understand. Contains a little mature content.
