The Mister is a sweet, fairytale romance, which tells the story of a blossoming relationship between a lord and his ‘daily’ in modern times. The hero has all the right swoon-worthy ingredients and the heroine is a 2019 damsel in distress. The chemistry is great, as you’d expect from E L James and there is quite an interesting. subplot coving a serious real-world issue.
Some occurrences in the book felt a bit repetitive and less was made of the serious theme in the middle of the book than I’d have liked so for me, a shift in balance would have made this a little bit more gripping as the middle lulled a little. There were also a few hmmm or eye roll moments.
However, it’s a bit of fun and an easy read if you fancy some frivolous entertainment and the pace picks up quite well towards the end. If you like romance I’d give it a whirl.
Genre: romance (some graphic scenes / mild erotica)
