"I'd love to set up a time to tutor you," he smiled, darkly, knowing that the offer wasn't just for help with sociological concepts."These four novellas should be read in order:Part 1: The ProfessorPart 2: The StudentPart 3: The WidowPart 4: The WifeThe Professor, part 1 follows MBA student, Sabrina Carson as she embarks on a secret BDSM relationship with her professor, Damien Areleon.  (A relationship against school policy, but there is no preferential treatment since the grading is done by the TAs).Both the professor and Sabrina are experienced in the BDSM scene and they realize instantly that they are very compatible and so there relationship moves along quickly as they push all boundaries.Soon the lines are blurred in what is meant to be a strict Dom-Sub relationship;  Lies are told and surprising secrets are revealed.  All set against the backdrop of school campus with many women vying for the handsome and enigmatic professor and men flirting with the innocent looking Sabrina.HERO: Damien Areleon/28 years/Professor - Human Sexuality/dark hair/light blue eyes/Dom.Six words to describe Damien Areleon, aka The Professor, Master, and Sir: Commanding, enigmatic, closed-off, skilled, strict and charismatic.HEROINE: Sabrina Carson/~22 years/MBA student/blond hair/brown eyes/Sub.Five words to describe Sabrina Carson aka My student and My pupil: Smart, focused, compliant, determined and insightful.Part 1 ended with a huge cliffy, but no worries I just jumped right over to part 2, The Student for the continuation of their story.  At first I felt, considering this was a taboo relationship that they very trustingly skipped right to sex and I felt the dialogue stilted at times.  That said, overall the story and characters ended up working well for me and the sex was steamy!Interesting plot!  Captivating Dom hero!  A fast-paced, very sexy and feel-good read!"He wasn't a fan of her presumption where he was concerned, but even he knew part of it was her desire to be punished more than a desire to top him."***Hero rating: 4+ starsHeroine rating: 3.5 starsSex scenes rating: 5 starsSex scenes frequency: 4.5 starsStoryline concept rating: 3.5 starsStorytelling skills rating: 4 starsStory ending rating: N/ABook editing rating (5 = no edits spotted): 5 stars************************************************Overall rating: 4 starsWould I recommend this series: Yes.Would I re-read this series: Maybe later.Would I read future books by this author: Yes.
