Recommendation
I absolutely adored this story. Erotic, sensual, and everything in between. It is hard not to fall in love with Riley & Carriveau right from the start. I enjoyed the cat and mouse chase between them. Keira Michelle Telford gives you everything; Romance, hotness and heartache. Her characters are so real and the scenes so visual. I would love a sequel showing how their passionate love affair progresses. This story leaves you wanting more!
When you read that a book takes place in a same sex boarding school, you #1clickthatbitch. This taboo love affair between a student and her teacher was respectively written with longing, lust, love and even a little bit of mystery. All these details made for an excitement filled book that I could not put down. I am new to Kiera’s books and was so impressed by The Housemistress that I am moving right onto another by her, Come, My Pet. Looking for something new? This is the book you want!

Publisher synopsis
AN EROTIC LESBIAN ROMANCE
For a lot of seventeen-year-old girls, being sent to a same-sex boarding school would be a nightmare for one simple reason: No boys. But that's really not a problem for sixth form student Rylie Harcourt. Instead, what might prove somewhat difficult to overcome is the school's strict policy concerning on-campus relationships.
All sexual contact is expressly forbidden. Carnal pursuits are a distraction from learning, so says the Headmistress, and virtue is to be as highly regarded as education–if not higher. This harsh ban on expressions of love becomes especially problematic when Rylie meets her new French Housemistress, Vivienne Carriveau, and attraction sparks.
In a sexless environment, thirty-one-year-old Mademoiselle Carriveau is a magnet for the affections of her hormonal, adolescent students. Competition for her attention is fierce, and when it starts to become clear that Rylie's burgeoning interest in her is reciprocated in equal measure, tension among the student body rises to a deadly level.
