You know when you pick up a magazine in a waiting room somewhere and read the articles in order to pass the time,  and are reasonably pleased if one of the holds your attention long enough for you to finish it?  Well that's the sort of 3 star rating this novella gets.  Yes,  all the words are in order,  they make reasonable sense (though why Jane swore a year of celibacy and how her friend can work professionally with these people and act the way she does is never explained) but this is not enthralling or hot or anything much,  just passable.  A weak OK.Jane one minute acts like an experienced sub, and the next she's hesitating over the simplest of tasks.  She doesn't really work as a character and I have no desire to actually buy the next two books and see what happens next,  there are enough cliched characters and situations here...  this is common tale retold without wit or warmth.
