His Prize Pupil

Rate this book
Alana is desperate to pay her college tuition and she only has one thing to sell—her innocence. The man who buys her for the night has very specific tastes. Tastes that excite her as much as they confuse her—and she never expected to want to fulfill them so badly. One night beneath a rough, possessive stranger named Gavin is not enough, but they’re torn apart before finding out one another’s true identities. That problem is solved a week later when Alana is sitting in the front row of her first college class and in walks her professor—none other than Gavin.

Their passion brings them roaring back together, but Gavin is being considered for a board of directors position at the university. Dating a student would kill his chances and Alana refuses to cost him the seat. Little does she know Gavin has found something much more important. Her. And he’s never giving her up.

“A father is an accountant in a sweater vest who yawns through your dance recitals. A Daddy pulls your hair, fucks you on your hands and knees, then buys you a pretty necklace. There’s a difference. You’re allowed to enjoy it.” She gives me an approving once-over. “And he certainly will.””

Read 2: Still a great read and I love the daddy kink and age play. I would normally have some negative feelings about a hero that starts out the book by visiting a brothel but somehow Jessa Kane magically made me okay with it.

Jessa Kane once again proves to me that she’s the master of the novella. I normally find them so short they’re unsatisfying but I never feel that way about hers. She has somehow perfected plotting and pacing with the short reads and I love them.

This book contains a few things I love. Daddy kink, obsession, and the student/teacher trope” I love how she handled the daddy kink or DD/lg aspect of this book. After reading those stories I sometimes feel uncomfortable with how much of a little girl the heroine is, like there might actually be something mentally or developmentally wrong with her. That wasn’t the case with Alana at all. I could tell she was turned on by the role-play of it as well as the aspect of him taking care of her.

Honestly this is as close to perfection as a novella has gotten for me and I highly recommend. For some excerpts from this book check out my highlights.

4 stars!!

Ms. Kane is (to me) the Queen of steamy instalove/lust short reads!

This book starts off with a girl selling her virginity so that she can pay her college tuition and it turns to more.

This novella includes:
- virgin h
- no condom
- daddy kink
- age-play
- alpha-male
- steamy smut

4 quick and dirty stars..

Well done Jessa Kane! This book was 76 pages and it was perfect insta-love, age gap kinky book to satisfy you between big reads.

I love me a good age gap, but I'm not normally into the Daddy kink, but little old Estelle might have me changing my mind.

“A father is an accountant in a sweater vest who yawns through your dance recitals. A Daddy pulls your hair, fucks you on your hands and knees, then buys you a pretty necklace. There’s a difference. You’re allowed to enjoy it.”




I will definitely be picking up this authors book again.

A very short and steamy instalust story. I know JK can't resist the word "Daddy" in her books but I was surprised this one featured an actual D/lg play.

And So My Jessa Kane Addiction Begins!
*read on KU. No need of sugar daddies called promo teams*

It's been a couple of weeks, and I still recall this short little entertaining novella. Jessa makes sweet stories that provide a lot of steam and fun. This had a lot of hilarious moments. It was also very cute. Basically, this is one of my more beloved Jessa stories, and I'm not even that into teacher-student stories.

ORIGINAL COMMENT
Still entertained. It's cute and steamy LOL.

"His Prize Pupil" is the story of Alana and Gavin.

A well used smut trope, in which a desperate almost-not-a-teen heroine trades her virginity to a stranger for money, who soon turns out to be the "daddy hero". The very next day she realizes he's her hotty hot teacher, they continue to forbiddingly bang, some drama and more age-play sex happens and it ends in a HEA.

Average novella with well written sex scenes. I am just not a fan of the teacher/student trope.

Safe
2.5/5

Considering I don’t usually gravitate toward student x teacher/professor romances, I found this to be on the better side of OK. I was really curious about this duology and I trusted in Jessa Kane.

It was spice forward of course, but I also love that they were each another person’s guest and got thrown into it together lol, it was a rather endearing set up. Plus their shared interests. The spice was definitely up my alley, but played a little too hard into DD/LG at the end for my tastes.

A quick and dirty read that satisfies with a slight edge of taboo. The little crumbs we get for the next book and new couple are super intriguing and even more taboo👀

Jessa Kane is a hit or miss for me, this one was more a hit though and I'm glad I read it. Can't wait for ripley and mase's book.
If you like age gaps/forbidden romance/teacher-student smutty novellas pick this one up.

Warning: A good old fashioned Jessa kane Daddy kink.

Yes, I knew about it going in.
Yes, I still read it voluntarily.
No, I didn't regret it (much).

I found this book while screening all (the remaining books I haven't read yet) Jessa Kane books for my arch nemesis: The Daddy Kink. I came across this student/teacher synopsis which, regrettably, is my one true weakness. It was super upsetting for me when I realised it was a daddy kink book (just take a shot everytime I say, "daddy kink") until I came across this review which helped put some things into perspective.

"A father is an accountant in a sweater vest who yawns through your dance recitals. A Daddy pulls your hair, fucks you on your hands and knees, then buys you a pretty necklace. There’s a difference. You’re allowed to enjoy it."

I'm never going to like the daddy kink. I can barely stomach it in most instances. But I'm going to be a better person than this irritable bitch that I've become and make an effort to sound less pissy over it and suck it up and atleast try enjoying it. Fake it till you are it, amiright?

Now for the book. I liked it a lot, actually. It's surprising how much you can enjoy things when you let yourself enjoy them. I was hooked from the moment it was mentioned that Gavin had a Tom Hiddleston vibe going on because I'm such a slut for that man,,,,,,it's not even funny. I love him love him love him. Have loved him for close to 10 years now. He can be my personal daddy too ;) (how did I say that without laughing my ass off?) So the mixture of the love of my life and a student teacher fantasy was enough to push me over the edge and love it already. Obviously the ending was super unrealistic, but I still enjoyed the book!

2.5 ⭐

Pretty short and steamy with some forbidden ness.

Alana is going to a brothel with her best friend since she has her own plan at the place. As for Alana her plan was to make money to attend school, her guy is Gavin at first he wasn't going to go though with it when he finds out Alana is a virgin but when she seduces him things get hot and heavy. But something happens to have her run away before he can talk to her. Now Gavin sees her again but in class he's teaching. Forbidden tension rises since he is offered a better position but it has rules no dating students. Now they have to figure out is it worth the fight.

Idk if I wanna read Alana friends story with the step uncle.. because she's doing the chasing :/ and he went to that brothel to forget her (even if the girl he slept with was her)

No ow/om drama, no cheating, Tiny drama, sexy times, Virgin girl and no manwhoere

“A father is an accountant in a sweater vest who yawns through your dance recitals. A Daddy pulls your hair, fucks you on your hands and knees, then buys you a pretty necklace. There’s a difference. You’re allowed to enjoy it.”


Final impressions:
• Age-gap, daddy/little girl dynamic, forbidden student-teacher relationship.
• While I understand that this is a short novella meant to be consumed uncritically, the pacing was so absurdly fast and weird that it left me feeling dissatisfied.

Not recommended.

DNF @ 21% - Pedo vibes too strong for me - he can’t get it up anymore with women his age. He eventually grows bored with them. So he’s been celibate. 😵‍💫😐 Now he’s gonna fulfill the fantasy of taking a young girl’s virginity … something the other women in his life couldn’t provide.

Yikes.

Been reading a lot by this author for my in between ARC reads when I am in the mood for fantasy sexy books, and this one was pretty amazing. I am usually not a fan of anything school related but this one was dirty enough where I wasn't even thinking about it. Great read!

I haven't had a JK palate cleanser in a while, but since I planned to read two similar authors in a row, I thought why not?

This was very heavy on the age play, not just regular daddy kink. I liked that the hero sacrificed something important for the heroine, though.

I actually really liked this. It’s a quick, steamy DDLG read.

Student/Teacher is one of my fave tropes so I think any books with that are great lol. Gavin was super intense in this and kinda seemed a little unhinged which I also love in books. He turned into a stalker and I love to see it. Alana was a really good mix of innocent virgin without being annoyingly unknowledgeable. She was funny and quick witted too without coming across as immature.

Took a star off for the unrealistic ending with “I love you”s being exchanged, then moving in together and getting married all within like a week of knowing each other.

Alana necesita conseguir dinero para pagarse su matrícula de la universidad, así que siguiendo la loca idea de su amiga Ripley, termina haciendo algo que nunca pensó que haría: vender su virginidad. Pero el hombre que la ha comprado puede que se convierta en algo más que una transacción... Puede que se lo encuentre en su clase de la universidad, como su profesor.

Bueno como hay varias cosas que no son de mi rollo: lo de papi/niña y profesor/alumna le he bajado un poco la nota, pero solo es por eso porque no es muy de mi estilo de lectura. Por lo demás el libro perfecto, del rollo de Jessa con final ultra feliz y bebés! 😁 Recomendado para pasar el ratito.

Jessa Kane has got me again! This was absolutely steamy. I couldn't help but gobble this story up. There is daddy kink here and you know I'm trash for that. I loved reading about Gavin being completely obsessed and finally getting comfortable with his wants and kinks. Another hit from Jessa Kane!

For a short story this one packs a lot of sexiness in it. While I'm not a big "daddy" fan, this one was well done. I liked that both of them were honest with each other and never backed down from their relationship from the start and did what they wanted.
