This is a new to me author and I will say I really enjoyed this novella! Writing was done well and the spicy was just right! Would definitely recommend!
This was somethinggggggg the chemistry, intimacy and desire was top notch full throttle no pit stops. The dynamic between the two of them and the three of them is something I can’t put into words. They were just something that was encapsulated in a bottle bursting to me be let out. I love how the main topic was about really a woman’s desires and how to honestly care for a woman in sensuality and intimacy as well as about how to please each other and really becoming one with someone genuinely, honestly and passionately. I wish I could read it for the first time all over again lmao.
I really want y’all to read this book. This isn't your ordinary spicy book. It captures the beauty and pleasure that come from honesty and vulnerability. Lessons are taught, lives are transformed. I found myself up in the middle of the night, eagerly taking notes! The compelling pace, captivating prose, and skillful syntax keep you fully immersed from start to finish. A truly beautifully written book. This is my first read by Sasha and it won’t be my last!
Rating 4.5 The beginning had me saying come on now lol. But once we made it to the good parts...baby it was spicy, there was learning and we got action. Lol. I was entertained. Definitely reading book 2.
4.5ish rounded up for sure to a 5 ! If it wasn’t for my book club besties, I probably would’ve kept this on my tbr for so long but whewhhh , I’m SO glad they lowkey convinced me. 😮💨🔥 As a book club owner, I’m always looking for books that give us something to talk about beyond “did you like it?” and this one absolutely does that.
This was SO much more than just spice. The chemistry, intimacy, desire, vulnerability, communication, and sensuality were all there. It honestly felt like a lesson in how people can learn each other, communicate what they want, and create real intimacy instead of everybody just guessing. Because like the book says, bad chemistry is sometimes really just bad communication. 👀
And one thing I REALLY appreciated was the MMC. We get so many romances where the main woman falls for a man with BDE who has to be flashy as hell—money, cars, power, mafia/drug lord status, expensive gifts, the whole nine. 😂 This wasn’t that.
She didn’t need him to buy her anything, show off, or prove himself with his bank account for the chemistry to be undeniable. She genuinely liked the man she was fucking because of who he was, how he communicated, how he showed up, and the connection they created together. And THAT made the relationship feel so much more intimate to me.
I also loved the vulnerability and the fact that nobody was just expected to magically know what the other person wanted. There was room to be honest, teach, learn, explore, and actually care about each other’s pleasure and desires. That made the spice feel intentional instead of just thrown in for shock value. 🌶️🌶️🌶️🌶️🌶️🌶️🌶️. There is SO much to unpack about intimacy, communication, vulnerability, desire, relationships, and what it really means to know and be known by someone. My book club is definitely going to have some things to say about this one. 😂🔥
Sasha, you got me. Currently about to go down a rabbit hole into your catalog. I’m very happy my besties put me on. And now I’m over here like…what else you got for me?! 👀📚
I can’t begin to tell you how much I ENJOYED being in the bedroom with Trell, Kia, and Josh!!! What started out as just going to a bar for a drink, picking up a guy that was supposed to be a project, turned into something none of them expected. I was literally going through some MOTIONS while reading this WHEW ! In the best way possible of course. Everything that happened fit like the perfect puzzle piece, like it was just meant to be. Josh thought he knew everything; but Trell & Kia showed him something different…all while UNLOCKING BRAND NEW LEVELS within himself. The experience between of them was literally explosive! The way Sasha wrote this book, I IMMEDIATELY ordered a physical copy BECAUSE IT WAS THAT AMAZING to me ! I really kept saying I love being in this bedroom with these characters 😂
“Some lessons don't end when class is over. Some lessons become your life….”
This was a good, short read that held my attention the entire time. Even though it was only a novella, the story was very well paced and it didn’t feel like anything was missing. LOVED the way the plot developed!
Trellany was a deeply introspective person who didn’t know how to relinquish control, until she met Josh. Josh was very teachable — he quickly learned that good things happen when you’re patient and willing to learn. Kia was sort of like a teacher’s assistant, providing extra notes for the study guide…
Overall, this story touched basis on how to stop performing in all areas of your life and let things flow naturally. Add this to your TBR!
This was very sensual. Loved how Josh was able to learn beyond what a man thinks. Both Kia and Trell taught him, shoot us, many things through their encounter. Josh was willing to go past his norm or what he thought and he listened. Now the part that kind of irked was Kia. You can see that Josh was more into Trell than Kia, and in my opinion I felt like she was just an extra character that should have dwindled in the background. The way this is written is truly a study guide. You can learn from it, however you want to. It’s definitely different . It is not your average erotica or anything. More beautifully written if that makes sense.
Devoured! You hear me? I Devoured this Novella and I cannot wait for the rest of the series. As an Aspiring author i truly loved how the book opens. We have an Author who just finished writing a book that has held her attention for 6 months. The only thing she wants is a night out. Her night def bleed into her morning. The story is one for Liberation in my opinion. Women studying themselves and then making sure their partners are willing to learn them. After-all she was kind enough to provide a study guide, and it was an open book test.
Whew this was good ! For them it was a project , experimenting, teaching…. Until it wasn’t . For him it was a learning experience and a challenge except it becomes deeper than that. This book deserves to be in the hands of both men and women! There are lessons to be learned here! Just because a woman never complained in the bedroom doesn’t mean you know what you were doing they just never told you! Men are designed to perform but imagine being vocal from day one listening, demonstrating, and applying what you learned . This was more than a study guide it was a lesson and LESSON LEARNED!
"Most people don't have bad chemistry. They have bad communication. Nobody says what they actually want. So everybody's guessing. And guessing is a terrible way to fuck."
This book was more than just spice. This was a lesson on desire, intimacy, chemistry and sensuality. It was sexy as hell. It was female dominance with honest communication between everyone involved. The mmc being vulnerable and teachable allowed for each person to have a good sexual time😉
This will go down as one of my favorite reads of 2026. I feel like Sasha wrote this to be sugar to go down with your medicine because sure, we come for the smut, but you walk away changed, emboldened and having learned something to apply to your s*x life.
It’s like what Whoopi Goldberg & Keke Palmer said on Keke’s Palmer—how can you tell anybody else how to please you if you don’t know how to please yourself? Yeeeaahhhhh get into this!!! I loved it!!!!
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️|🌶️🌶️🌶️🌶️.5 This one was a really good erotica! This was a new to me author and I basically went in blind reading this book. It was written really well and was short but impactful. I enjoyed how she guided the MMC in each lesson. This one was good and spicy!
I would recommend and the cover is beautiful too but the book is even better! 💖
This book was so good definitely learned a few things with the lessons and not necessarily the sexual portion of it but the observing, the understanding and so many other things.. This book definitely had some gems if you truly read the words and not solely focus on the nasty nasty lol
I went into this blind and it was a wild ride. I appreciate it. I’m glad Tell decided to stop overthinking and just be and live so she could be happy. Also men do need a study guide.
Baby the name of this book ain’t lied one bit! I walked in with an open mind and left out with a full heart AND some teachable thoughts. Originally read because I loved the art work but ms author you wrote the heck out of this book!
Wow. The perspective this book gave me 🤯 I feel like Josh. Wrecked. 😅 I would’ve loved for this book to have given us some chapters from Kia & Josh’s POV’s as well. That would be my only critique
I loved this book. There was a lot of spice, but what I loved most about this book was the freedom of letting go. It was so well written. I am going to start the second book right now lol.
