Instructing Emily By: Lyla Sinclair (Read Excerpt) E-mail this product to a friend   Graduate student Emily Brooks wishes she were going to a romantic rendezvous with Professor Mark Kendall. Instead, she’s heading to his office to salvage her grade-point average, since she was too distracted by his hotness to pass some of his tests. When the professor realizes Emily wants more than a passing grade, he agrees to retest her—while he administers some new, very pleasurable distractions.   When Emily passes, Mark invites her to his house for the weekend and she’s thrilled that her romantic dreams are finally coming true. However, once there, she learns he expects her to be his sex slave. His touch is too exquisite to resist and his demands and dominance become more and more exciting as the weekend progresses. But is this all part of a bigger test? And if she passes, will she get the one thing she’s wanted for years?   Note: Graduate at the head of the class by studying the rest of the kinky curriculum at E.J. Kumm University in Hard on Miss Hardin and Checking Out Audrey, also by Lyla Sinclair. Quantity:

Karen on 7/28/2010, said: At the beginning of the book the reader will probably hate Mark and will probably think Emily is too smart to submit to someone like Mark. However, once you get into the story you will come to understand why Mark appears to be so cold. I enjoyed this book more so than Checking Out Audrey.

Ann on 6/13/2010, said: It was ok, but of the 3 of her stories that are loosely related, it was my least favorite. I really didn't like Mark that much. The best of the stories would be Checking Out Audrey. Was this comment helpful? yes no   (1 people found this comment helpful, 0 did not) 3. D L on 6/3/2010, said: Hawt!!!

Melissa on 5/28/2010, said: I really liked this story the only problem i had was the lack of emotion from Mark in the beginning. The end was great i just wish there had been a more emotional connection between the characters at the beginning & middle of the story Was this comment helpful? yes no   (1 people found this comment helpful, 1 did not) 5. Night Owl Erotica www.NightOwlErotica.com on 5/25/2010, said: 4.75 / 5- TOP PICK - From Terri - The most powerful thing in this story is the emotions. They are expressed in a way that you feel them, experience them and understand them. This is especially true concerning Emily. Her confusion in what is happening to her and expected of her comes across vividly. The nervousness she has when asking how to raise her grade as well as her nervousness in showing up for a retest is perfect. It’s hard to always get the correct emotion to come across but Ms Sinclair did it. The characters are very well done, again, especially Emily. There backgrounds are given but even more important their personalities are seen. Emily is very curious and that gets her in trouble. Mark is cautious but with reason. Even though there is very little interaction with other characters, Mark and Emily give the impression of well rounded people. This story is fairly short, only 45 pages or so. Yet, there is so much in those few pages. When finished, I would have swore that this story was longer due to all the details I had. The sex is very graphic and some could be considered sexual harassment. While there is definitely a BDSM element, there is also a twist. I was almost to the point of hating Mark due to his lack of care of his sub but due to the occasional glimpse of vulnerability, I was willing to give him a chance. I came away with the impression that the BDSM lifestyle was not the way Mark usually lived but a slight deviation. This is the first story of Lyla Sinclair’s that I have read but it’s sure not to be the last. The way she is able to bring out emotion is exemplary. I can’t wait to see what she has coming out next. Even more, I can’t wait to see what she can do with a full length novel. Was this comment helpful? yes no   (3 people found this comment helpful, 0 did not) Showing comments 1-5 of 5
