The Apprentice
Shane Gold has just secured his first job, as Apprentice Electrician for Sparks Electrical. Being short, skinny and naive, he wonders how he secured the job ahead of more physically capable candidates.
But while Shane loves his job and working for his hot young boss Brian, his $150 per week salary is going to be challenging to live on.
A full re-wiring of Bella’s Bordello, a brothel renowned for its Virgin Conversion Therapy, is his first job. He can’t believe he gets paid to spend two weeks at a brothel learning the ropes, getting coffees and hanging out with the staff.
But things heat up when he discovers how Madam X, owner of Bella’s Bordello, keeps her costs under control.
How will Shane decide to spend his payment in kind and why will it change his life forever?

I have been following Yumi Cox on social media for a while now, and even though her name initially made me giggle, I was impressed with everything I read. She seemed to be a clever, well-spoken author with a loving grasp of transgender themes and I was anxious to give her a read.
The Apprentice is the story of a young electrician’s apprentice named Shane, a slender, long-haired boy who just wants to be helpful. When he joins his boss in rewiring the infamous Bella’s Bordello, where Madam X prefers to trade for services, he find himself overwhelmed by the erotic allure of the women there. Natasha, a leather-clad beauty catches him in her web, teasing him, seducing him, and offering to provide his very own Virgin Conversion Therapy.
This is such a sex-positive, trans-positive story, I absolutely fell in love with the characters. Natasha’s reveal is casual, and Shane’s reaction is entirely sweet. There is no shock, surprise, or struggling with emotions. He is such a wonderful submissive, so eager to please and excited to learn, and as Shayna he is even more delicious. The erotic elements are explicit but tasteful, as much about how Shane/Shayna feels as what they are feeling, and the sense of self-discovery and personal growth is an absolute delight.

I'll never look at an Apprentice the same way after reading this book. Original and very sexy, the book moves from hot to hotter to hottest. Great work Yumi - keep it up.
PS where is Bella's Bordello located?

Wow - talk about steamy. So much bedroom action in this one. I love the setting, a brothel that specialises in Virgin Conversion Therapy. And I'm sure I've met many of the the characters too ;) A wonderful read.

Natural is always best!!!
How can you go wrong with mayoral instincts. 2nd job for safety was a good decision, why take chances on the house of cards falling apart!!!
