Sarah's Education
Sarah's birthday plan was to taste her first drink and lose her virginity on the same night. When her boyfriend lets her down, she goes ahead with the drink and is mistaken for a call girl, much to her delight. It is the most thrilling night of her life and leads Sarah into regular secret liaisons in top hotels with strange and exciting men—for cash. Sarah finds she has a natural talent for satisfying her kinky clients' fetishes. All is well until a sexy, dominant client ignites her deepest desire and then shows up as a professor at her college. Already complicated for this student call girl, life becomes a heady mix of love and lust as she learns her lessons both in the classroom and over the knee.

The Yip thing really annoyed me.
February 27, 2011
This is one of the better erotica novels I've read in a while, being well written, interesting, exciting and even humorous, with a central female character who is well developed and not annoying. It's Erotic Romance in that it has a happy ending, but there's nothing really romantic about it.
Sarah has long promised herself that on her twenty-first birthday she will have her first drink and lose her virginity. When her boyfriend David seems to have forgotten her birthday entirely, Sarah goes ahead with her plan to have some champagne - but when she arrives at the Toledo Royal Avenue Hotel she's mistaken as an escort and ends up losing her virginity anyway - to a man she's never met before. It isn't until she wakes up the next day to an empty hotel suite and an envelope with a lot of money inside that she realises what happened, and it isn't until after she's spent all the money that she gets a call from the escort agency, wanting their cut.
In order to pay back the money she owes, Sarah agrees to her first assignment - which turns out to be watching a couple who like to be watched - in the most interesting of positions. Each assignment that Sarah agrees to further broadens her new-found interest in sex and her knowledge of the many kinds of sexual desire. She finds that she's good at it too, though still yearning for something she can't put into words.
Then a weekend-long assignment comes her way and she meets John, an older, well-educated man who introduces her to the kind of play she's been fantasising about; it's a weekend she can't get out of her head. When "John" turns up at her university as her new Honours Philosophy Ethics professor, things become more complicated for Sarah's once-orderly world.
This book actually reminded me of a similar story I had to read for an English class at university, in which a young, sexually-innocent girl married to a much, much older man has a brief affair with a man who encourages her to become a call girl, and enter a world of wild and kinky sex. I can't remember what it was called (though the cover image isn't one you're likely to forget in a hurry, of a woman in stiletos wrapped in straps of leather, holding a whip - ah that was a great course!), but that one had a much different ending.
I found Sarah a much more interesting character than you usually get in this kind of fiction - she was just as believable as a student as she was as a call girl, and her growth as a character was natural and plausible. It was certainly titillating - some of her assignments were rather unusual, such as the grown man who had a nursery in his house and wanted an escort to pretend he was a baby and she his mother - there are so many different kinds of people in the world, that the idea of "normal" is a ludicrous one to hold onto. That was definitely a part of the book I really appreciated, and it's so fascinating to delve into the psyches of other people, even if in fiction.

I really enjoyed it. There's a good story line and we learn about the tastes Sarah never knew she had, as she goes on her journey. And of course a HEA ending always has me smiling.
I found the final scene very touching.

I was actually on the fence with this rating. I was aiming for 4.5, but it was worth the five. This is a new to me author. The journey of Sarah’s sexual experience or learning was interesting. She starts off working as a call girl accidentally, and then decided to make it a part-time gig. While working there, her view of sex and how she likes it changes, especially when she meets Jon.

The ending was rushed and unrealistic, but overall enjoyable.

Mittlerweile sollte mir wohl einleuchten, dass es nicht viele gute Erotikromane gibt, auch wenn ich mir das Buch mit dem Gedanken geholt habe, dass ich Lust auf was trashig-leichtes habe, war ich gen Ende doch wieder ein kleines bisschen enttäuscht und genervt.
Sarah ist eine junge Studentin, vergeben und als Protagonistin dieses Abenteuers natürlich noch Jungfrau. Eines schönen Tages stolpert sie in ein Hotel und trifft dort fremde Leute, die so rüberkommen, als wären es eigentlich ihre Freunde, was genau sie dort eigentlich wollte, wird man nie erfahren, aber es kommt schnell zu ihrem ersten Mal mit einem fremden Mann, der ihr sofort multiple Orgasmen beschafft und in den sie sich Hals über Kopf verliebt. Dabei fallen natürlich, wie in vielen anderen Erotikromanen meine liebsten Worte: „[...] es könnte ihr kommen[...]“ und ab dieser Formulierung ist es bei mir meistens schon vorbei, weil diese hat nichts erotisches an sich – ich denke dabei immer, ihr würde die Kotze hochkommen.
Schließlich landet das junge Mädchen bei einer Agentur für Callgirls und ist natürlich direkt rattig auf das Geld, weswegen sie den Job annimmt.
Einige interessante Situationen ergeben sich dadurch schon und man bekommt viel Abwechslung aufgetischt, doch was mich hier wieder stört ist der Zusammenhang von Story und Klappentext, welcher einen Jon, oder 'John' auf den Plan bringen soll, der ihr Leben als Studentin ordentlich auf den Kopf stellen soll.
Mit der Erwartung hier eine Lehrer/Schüler-Geschichte zu lesen kommt man nicht weit, denn besagter Jon taucht viel zu spät auf und entpuppt sich erst mal als vollkommen anders, als erwartet.
Gegen Ende schien die Autorin wohl auch keine wirkliche Lust mehr zu haben, denn sie stolpert von einem Kapitel ins nächste, ohne das sich ein richtiger Zusammenhang findet, aber ein Yay für eine obligatorische Vergewaltigungsszene, die natürlich in keinem 'guten' Erotikroman fehlen darf.
Und zu allem Überfluss wird einem am Ende auch noch ein Haufen Kitsch auf dem Silberteller serviert.
Sowas kann man auch besser machen.

This book was... disappointing. I finished it, so I gave it three stars. But it could have been more. Sarah was a spoiled, materialistic girl who cares little for her fiancee. If anything, she has better relationships with her john's than she does with those actually in her life.
I was sure there was going to be some sort of redeeming lesson.
There was porn. Lots of it. I love a good smut scene. And there were some entertaining ones. I cringed every time I read an orgasm, though. Something about the pacing just got me almost there...then... left me hanging. Also, every single encounter had a drenching, squirting "o". Even the rape scene.
Ugh.
If you've got nothing better to do, check it out. There's better, sexier smut out there (Selena Kitt comes to mind). If you like character drive work, try Switch by Megan Hart. That's a read that sticks with you, even if you don't enjoy all of the heroine's choices.

Forget a certain Twilight-inspired embarrassment, Sarah's Education is an intelligent submissive female story. Upmarket both in writing style and social setting, this is skillful erotica from a writer who has lived a little. Sensual, witty, evocative - heats up erogenous zones nicely. Even better, it does not contain 86 mentions of 'Holy Crap! or the simpler, more elegant 'Crap!' There is no slang indigenous to London rather than the story's locale or the many other toe-stubbing idiocies that bedevil 50 Shades.

I couldn't put this book down! After reading the 50 shades books, I have realized that I enjoy reading this type of book. Wonderful book, I highly recommend it!

The ending was too rushed! I kept thinking ok when is she going to meet the guy and get her happily ever after... This book dragged on for me. There are better erotica books out there

A quick and enjoyable read. I could have done without some of the seemingly unnecessary plot details, but I appreciated the less formulaic approach nonetheless.

Original, erotic, sensual, thought provoking.. I could have lived without,"Yip, yip, yip", though.
