The erotic adventures of an innocent young woman in Victorian London.
When Eleanor enters service in the Hampton household she has no idea that beneath the façade of respectability, the house is a secret world of lust and depravity. Her mistress, Lady Hamilton, soon teaches Eleanor her position in the sternest and most shocking manner. Immediately, Eleanor realises to her horror that once you've felt the thrill of submission life will never be the same again.
I've had this book for years but only read it two times. It's quite fun victorian smutt although for me it felt lacking in some ways in the story category. It's definitely an erotica and does well in that but I like it when it's mixed with a good plot line as well and not just smutt in all the ways.
Set in the Victorian era, Eleanor is a country lass who moves to the city of London to be a maid at the household of Mrs. Hampton, a well to do widower with a randy staff of maids, cooks, and butlers on hand. But is Eleanor ready to meet the demanding sexual needs of her employer? And once she gets in her good graces, will she be able to stay there?
Nice modern take on the Victorian theme, with much spanking, caning, and feminine domination and just the right amount of smut. I noted that the cover photo was taken by Aishling Morgan so I'm guessing that this one was written by him or Penny Birch, or maybe a combination of both. If it was, it's surprisingly restrained for them, judging from the few books I've read of theirs. Nice pic on the cover, too. Recommended for fans of Victorian smut.
