Choke and Stroke Academy

Rate this book
When Symphony steps inside an enigmatic mansion, she finds herself in a darkened classroom unlike any she’s ever seen. At the front of the room stands a figure cloaked in mystery and charisma, known only as Professor X.

She’s immediately drawn to him. The seductive man she’s only heard whispers about, but never seen in person. With a commanding presence and a voice that sends shivers down her spine, he introduces her to an exhilarating curriculum that defies all conventions. One that results in her struggling to discern where education ends and indulgence begins as she’s forced to take hard look at herself in the mirror.

As the line between fiction and reality blurs, each lesson pulls her closer to a choice she never expected to make. A decision to reveal her life or death truth, or remain in the shadows.

Attention This syllabus is a fast quickie into the dark romance course at Choke and Stroke Academy. Class is now in session. Does Professor X have your undivided attention?

Choke and Stroke Academy is the latest dark romance by USA Today bestselling author Sherelle Green. Better known as CASA, the agreement and rules to enter the academy cannot be taken lightly. Ms. Green is not playing around with this one. Symphony Hawke is a broken person with a lack of trust, because of things she experienced as a child. She is a sex surrogate who lives a double life. She finds herself in the wrong place at the wrong time or maybe it was the right time? Ultimately, she felt an unwelcome pull toward the infamous Professor X before she saw his face. His eyes were a unique copper color. This was coupled with his deep-caramel skin. Professor X is the managing instructor for CASA. He’s responsible for helping
people live a more fulfilled life in…physical and strategic ways. Due to their respective lines of work, Symphony and X had a wealth of sexual experiences. Despite that, they fell quickly and had an emotional connection from the start.
Ms. Green pushes the envelope once again. The Prologue lets readers know what is in store, but I still wasn’t ready! The intricate details of the vows of the
academy were creatively written. Choke and Stroke
Academy may not be for everyone, but I highly recommend it.

I've only read a couple of books by this author. And to be honest, I actually stumbled into this book while looking for another from a different author. But God doesn't make mistakes. Immediately, the cover caught my attention, and I completely forgot what I was originally looking for.

This book was one of THE best books that I have ever had the pleasure and privilege to read. It's so hard to put all that I want to say about this book into this review. This is a whole new world for me. Reading about CASA and what it stands for and what goes on when class is in session just makes me hungry for more. The chemistry and passion between Professor X and Symphony were so palpable that you could almost feel the heat coming off the digital pages.

Overall, Choke and Stroke has opened my eyes into a whole new world that I would love to learn more about. Author Sherelle Green knocked this one out of the stadium!! I can't wait to read more of Professor X and Symphony as well as Crux and Ace.

Class is in session INDEED!

Man oh man did I enjoy this! If the next class is even a little bit like this know I’m have me pen and paper ready to learn all lessons given! Sherelle got me wanting to go for a walk down a dark alley hoping to get kïnapped to experience this curriculum. Sis definitely delivered with this one. Hendrix and Symphony are new favorite couple in this dark gritty crime romance universe.

Rating 4.5 ⭐️ Choke and Stroke Academy is unapologetically spicy, unhinged in the best way and dripping with power play from the very first bell. What starts as a wrong woman kidnapping spirals into something far more delicious. Symphony wasn’t supposed to be there yet she was intrigued. Her interest piqued by his smell, by his voice and by the thought of someone wanting her. Once she understood the mistake, she was eager to fill the role.

Double Trouble is the perfect name because the push and pull between Symphony and Professor X is pure chaos chemistry. This isn’t just dom versus sub. This is dom versus dom, brat energy colliding with control and roles bending instead of breaking. Professor X never shifts his stance but Symphony she moves fluidly, choosing who she wants to be moment by moment and that’s where the real power lives. Watching him slowly realize she isn’t just participating but directing the experience was chef’s kiss.

The academy itself feels like a seductive trap dressed up as education. Every lesson forces self reflection, confrontation
and reclamation. It’s erotic yes
but it’s also intentional. Power, choice, consent and identity are all braided together tightly. Nothing feels accidental.

🤦🏽‍♀️ listen when Professor X finally said his name the dots connected so fast I had to sit up. The reach, the influence, the quiet menace behind the curtain made everything click. That reveal alone elevated the story. The Crownes are in every corner of the world!

This wasn’t just spicy for shock value. It was layered, confident and bold. Class was absolutely in session and I was seated, attentive and taking notes.

OMG!

This is the first book that I’ve read by Sherelle Green, but I can guarantee that it won’t be the last. This page turning, exciting book was well written and kept my attention from beginning to end! The chemistry between Professor X and Trouble, aka Symphony/Alexi, was palpable and felt with each encounter that they shared. I can’t wait and am excited to read more of her books.

Choke and stroke academy

This was yet another great read by this author and I can’t wait for more. X and Sym were a perfect match and their chemistry could be felt off the page. I would love to get more from them as well as Ace and Crux.

Allow Yourself to Be Lured In

This work was different than my usual read but no less intriguing. The characters and the scenes are vivid and detailed. If you're ready Sym and X will take you on a wild ride. Join the club and get to reading.

I liked this one and will definitely read more from the series. The ending did feel rushed but maybe more will be revealed as more books come out. I loved Symphony and X was cool too.

I wish we defintely would’ve gotten at least an answer about X’s twin.

Dark & Spicy

I liked the story primarily because it featured a Black female assassin as the MFC, which is quite rare in novels; and the ✍️ delivered on the spice & 🥵The ending was a bit disappointing as it felt rushed , leaving us readers with too many unanswered questions🤔

choke & stroke

Never knew the thrill that waited Madame O when she experienced her first choke episode. The elevated sexual experience that were detailed within the pages of this story were a 10 out of 10.

Professor X and Madame O have smoking hot chemistry from jump. This book will capture your attention early and will not yet you go til the final page and then u will be wanting more of the storyline, more of the choking, more of the stroking. Another Crowne family masterpiece by Sherelle Greene.

If you want to expand your horizon and let your Inhabitations go this is definitely the story for you.
