Regency housemaid Euphemia Reeves has acquired a faerie godfather. Unfortunately, he has no idea what he's doing.
Euphemia Reeves has most inconveniently fallen in love with Mr Benedict Ashbrooke. Housemaids do not marry gentry, of course... but a faerie named Lord Blackthorn is only too eager to help Effie win Mr Benedict's heart regardless.
