If you loved books like Fifty Shades of Grey (E.L. James), Bared to You (Sylvia Day) and the Crossfire series, you'll love The Ivy Lessons...

Teacher, plus student, equals a romance forbidden.

When Sophia wins a post-graduate place at Ivy Drama College, she can't believe her luck. The college is owned by one of the most well-respected young actors in London, Marc Blackwell - who not only founded the college, but teaches the students.

Known for his strict classes and belief in discipline, Marc has a reputation for being arrogant and aloof, yet Sophia soon finds herself drawn to this cold, fascinating young man.

Soon, Sophia is embarking on a journey of sexual discovery that promises to explore all that is forbidden between teacher and student.

Good, but with caveats.

This book is perfect for the guilty please of a good story with plenty of steamy scenes, and the good ole student-teacher trope! Even better, it’s set in London against the backdrop of a historical college and lovely accents. A few caveats though - Marc’s relationship with Sophia is problematic at times. He doses quite a lot of telling her how she feels and what she wants, instead of listening. Those bits are hard for the feminist in me to happily listen to. Overall, I do recommend this for a quick weekend listen. Certainly makes house chores go quicker 😉

Reviewed for Audiobook Obsession

So, I found this story interesting, enjoyed the exuberance, friendship, innocence, determination Sophia emitted. Marc was sex on a stick, he however did not give me the deep feeling of dominant alpha male I felt from Christian or Gideon. Having said that, this is only book one, I could be mistaken?
Anna Parker-Naples was a perfect narrator portraying Sophia.

Taboo romance

The sparks fly between Sophia and her movie star teacher, Mark. He has a different type of lessons he wants to teach her. They have to hide their rendezvous. The teacher/ student forbidden taboo. He tests her sexual inhibitions to the limits. She just needs to trust him. But how far will he go?
Anna Parker Naples narration is very good. I enjoyed listening to the story 🎧audiobookobsessionreviewer🎧

Series or Standalone

Narrator did a good job at giving us a coy, innocent student and dark professor who held special needs.

while It does have BDSM themes I wouldn't go so far as to comparate to 50 sog, this is a diffent setting also to my understanding Marc isn't a saddist just seeks control. Best part is while this was volume 1 the ending gave me a HFN the choice to continue is there but if we wish this can be a standalone.
