As an English Professor at a private university, my life was near perfect. Yes, the female student body could be aggressive in their advances at times, but there was never any temptation. Not when I had the high school sweetheart and love of my life by my side.
One Monday in May three little words changed everything. “We are over.” Janet cast me aside with no explanation or chance of closure. I was left broken, my confidence shattered.
When my best friend, Eddie, dragged me to Florida for a summer away, I didn’t put up a fight. It was a chance to lick my wounds and recover without running into the one who broke my heart. I had no way of knowing the trip would end with me on my knees in a bathroom worshiping a beautiful Goddess. Nor could I guess that indiscretion would have lasting consequences that would forever change my world. Cassie was an unyielding force who accepted nothing less than my full submission.
Obedience is an age gap romance between a college professor and his student that was originally published on Kindle Vella. This volume is a collection of the first twenty-four episodes of the ongoing series.
After the professor goes through a rough breakup his buddy takes him to Florida for the summer where he hooks up with a younger woman who takes control making the mmc not able to get the night out of his mind he never expecting to see her again. school starts back up the professor still unable to get the women out of his head til he walks into his classroom and she is there. The FMC brings the professor to his knees literally she wants control in her life and has found a way to have it with the professor. But they both have a lot to lose if word gets out. this has light dom/sub in it, and ends on a cliff hanger leaving me wanting more.
Hollllllyyyy shit. Right firstly colleagues… if you’re reading this and decide to read this book later don’t judge ok😂 Am I obsessed with this? Yes. I’ve actually not read anything like this before (femdom, swap in dynamics, male submission). Do I need more? Absolutely I do. Is this 290+ pages of smut, of course? Nothing further needed just that Joshua is a sweetie pie.

I wanted to read some sexy, something fun which this book definitely offered! However, I could not believe how emotional it was from the mental health standpoint. I related SO MUCH to the MMC and the FMC despite him being a 40yr old professor and her a 21yr old student. Their anxieties were my own and it really only made me cheer them on even more as a couple.
Their dynamic is not the typical student x professor because SHE is the one in charge and takes care of her professor. He is submissive to her and lives for her praise while she relishes in finally being in control of something in her life. The tension and their banter was ALMOST more delicious than when they finally "get together" and you can tell their relationship is so much more than a fling.
I feel like this book was empowering for women, entertaining, and overall a very healing read for me. I can't wait to read volume 2!
Domme fmc ( 21 ) Submissive mmc ( in his 40s) So a big age gap Its a professor student romance but the mmc is not the one with the upper hand in the power dynamic ( but the fmc )
He is her good boy !! And she is his mistress. She calls him “good boy”’
It’s not like a full on BDSM relationship of course but it’s a professor student relationship - not the usual kind .
I really enjoyed this - it was hot - kinky and fun I cannot wait for part 2 in this series to eventually be released .
I absolutely loved Cassie !! Joshua or rather professor grant was eager to please his goddess ( Cassie) like he was so downbad and eager I loved it . It was different seeing a dynamic where the mmc is older yet not dominant .
I wish this didn’t end on a cliffhanger like part 2 when ??
Praise was a huge factor in this book and I ate it up - I obviously loved that she called him “good boy “
Obedience (Part One) by Lizzi Brown is a fast-paced, steamy read that’s easy to follow and hard to put down. While the story leans more toward smut than plot, it still delivers an entertaining experience that doesn’t pretend to be anything it’s not. What really makes the book stand out is Cassie’s journey—watching her take control, even when she’s uncertain or vulnerable, feels genuinely empowering. There’s something deeply satisfying about seeing a character grow into her strength, and it leaves you feeling just a little more powerful yourself.
This book had ALL the spice and then some! Nothing hits quite like a student and professor relationship! Throw on an age gap and a handsome professional who has recently taken a blow to his ego and a young woman who is dying for control and you get this master piece! Although this book was filled with ALL THE SPICE it has an addicting storyline that kept me turning to the next page! The ending has me nervous and excited for what is to come! The ending was the perfect cliffhanger!
OMG WHERE DO I START. Poor professor Joshua was left with no explanation. His Bestie Eddie had plans for the summer go to Florida and just forget about everything! Then this Blue eyed blonde catches him when he just wants a one night stand……So he thought! This is literally edge of your seat 🌶️🌶️🌶️🌶️ cliffhanger! I almost died when I read that last page
I loved this book! I didn’t expect to get sucked in as much as I did. I was so excited to keep reading until it got to the end and just basically ended on a cliffhanger. I didn’t know this book was still ongoing and the rest of the chapters are on kindle Vella and u have to pay for it. It sucks because now I’ll never know the rest of the story.
Very erotic and fun read! One of those reads you read one handed! I had fun reading about Joshua and Cassie in their different POVS and the potential conflicts in their heads. I'm very excited for volume 2
Thoroughly enjoyed this book the power switch was different than what I usually read but I wasn't disappointed to say the least my only dislike is that I can't read the rest
5/5 ⭐️ 5/5 🌶️ Such an amazing read. Spice from beginning to end with an incredible story. If you’re looking for female domme, forbidden romance, age gape, professor student, lots of spice and lots of feels. This is absolutely the book to read. I cannot wait to read more. 😋
Holy smokes. I tore through this book so fast. The plot and characters were compelling, and the sex was mind melting. Watching Josh and Cassie try and navigate their dynamic and relationship only made me thirsty for more.
*Edit* The more I have thought about this book and talked about aspects of it over with people, the better the book gets. I have recommended this book heavily to 3 people already and will likely keep going.
Firstly, thank you Lizzie for providing me an advanced copy. I was obliged to DNF this book, the writing was good but I didn’t feel any chemistry between them, I found the smut a little cringe and everything goes too fast, a moment he was just talking about his ex, which I didn't really like and the next day he was already possessive towards her. I didn't want to force myself more than that.
Oh my god I loved this!!! I can’t wait for more! Joshua is such a real and interesting character, and the uncommon dynamic between him and sunny but demanding Cassie is even more fascinating!! I loved watching them navigate the relationship between the sub/dom AND the professor/student dynamic. The spice is the perfect mix of action and emotion!
Coming out of a long term relationship, Joshua isn’t looking for anything. While on vacation with a friend, he’s encouraged to have a little fun. What could it hurt. So he does just that.
It’s quite the turn of events when his new student is the one he met over break and shared that moment with.
Cassie is tired of being pushed around by everyone so she decides to take control. This is where things really get interesting.
This one surprised me. I wasn’t expecting the dynamic. Would have liked a little more background and more moments that deepen the main characters connection. Lots of spice and a pretty huge cliffhanger!
“You look like you are about to pray,” “Only fitting, since I am about to worship a goddess,”
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️💫 College Professor Joshua is going through a breakup during summer break. He spots a beautiful blonde at a bar, states away from where he teaches. It was supposed to be just a one night fling.. Until she shows up in his Creative Writing class as a student. Cassie ignored Joshua through class the first day, but when Josh read the paper she wrote that day.. about them and that day at the bar. Will this turn into more than a fling?
Firstly, when I read that she wrote the story about that day, and reading what she wrote, hot damn! Lizzie did an amazing job with this book. I was hooked right away. The spice was so hot. The relationship development was great.
A College Professor being submissive to his YOUNGER STUDENT!? - I am absolutely HOOKED!
"You look like you are about to pray,” “Only fitting, since I am about to worship a goddess"
I think I might have a weakness for forbidden romance, especially after reading Obedience. The shift in power from being her (much older) professor to him on his knees obeying her every command, had me completely mesmerized. I thoroughly enjoyed every second of reading about Joshua and Cassie's story, their inner struggles and insecurities and how them coming together in their specific roles was exactly what they both needed.
I received this ARC and it did not disappoint! Are you looking to get hot for professor? Do you enjoy age gap? Have you ever craved reading about the younger female being the dominant one in the bedroom (and relationship)? Then download this one now! And hold on ;) The spice was everywhere and it was HOT!
I really like the dynamic between Joshua and Cassie, even though she is his student. They definitely have a learning curve to go through due to age difference and what not of overall relationships. Good timeline and everything is clear, with very little grammar or punctuation errors. Some good spice too 😁🔥🔥
This was probably one of those books that I didn't expect to like but enjoyed quite a lot. It is a originally published on Kindle Vella, and I hope there would be enough chapters soon for next volumes, because I'm enjoying Joshua's and Cassie's story. Their dynamics were completely unexpected but it was quite fun to read about! (we have a 21 year old Femdom!) yes, everything is not what it seems here.
Such a great read. Joshua and Cassie have that connection that we all want and it shows. I do feel that it was a bit fast but their feelings and relationship were valid. A great quick read.
Well, I absolutely enjoyed this fast paced Dom/Sub SMUT book. It was good to read and hit the spot for a pleasant read!
My fave smut esk scene is probs the one in his office - and then also how lovely he is for date night 😌
I enjoyed the character development though I did kinda want him to grow a pair and own her just once but I also understand the dynamics in why that wasn’t to happen! I believe there are other books in this world from the author! Give it a go!

So, Josh—the smoldering professor—gets dumped by his long-term girlfriend. Ouch! But guess what? He's back in the playboy game, and things are about to get hotter than a jalapeño emoji! 🔥
And Cassie? Oh, she's a naughty kitty, meow! 🐱 Trapped by her family, she's all about control struggles. I feel that—I've got my own battles with control, ya know? 🤷♀️ But here's the twist: Josh is not just any MMC. He's older, vulnerable due to his past, and rocking those grey sweatpants. 😏 And when Cassie whispers those two magic words—“good boy”—he melts like a scoop of gelato on a hot summer day.
Two vulnerable souls, like puzzle pieces searching for their match. 🧩 This book? Funnier than I expected! Thanks, Lizzie—you saved me from a dark romance slump. 🙌🏻 And guess what? A little birdie said all the episodes are available on Kindle Vella, including a sneak peek at the next installment. Gosh, Lizzie! Where is book 2? 😭
