Review:
Rating: 4 out of 5 stars
This is my first Sierra Simone novel! Or novella if you want to be technical. I was very happy with the book overall and I will try a few more books by her. This one was well written, but dare I say, tame. The characters are into some light BDSM stuff and I would have liked to see them get into the dark side a little bit further. I might have expected a steamier book since I have heard a lot of great things about SS.
Oliver and Zandy were two people that had chemistry, a lot of feelings and a connection that works for them (and me as a reader I might say). He has some demons from this past that made me wanna slap someone and Zandy is very inexperienced with everything when it comes to men. I realized that the more I read the more I was liking her. She is someone who I didn't know I was rooting for and yet I did. She was not a doormat and that got her lots of extra points in my book. Oliver had some bad moments, but none that were unforgivable which is also a good thing about the book.
Misadventures with a Professor felt different from the rest of the series for some reason. It was kinky, but at the same time, it felt a little bit too tame for the series and more like a story that didn't have a theme. Maybe that's the reason I am willing to go with 4 stars instead of 5.

Meet the Author
Sierra is a voracious reader of all things including the smuttiest smut, young adult, piles of non-fiction for research, and everything Bill Bryson (especially on audio).
She loves writing the dirtiest things that she can think of, King Arthur, sparkling water, Tarot, coffee, leggings, and learning new words daily.
Her previous jobs have included firing ceramics, teaching living history lessons in one-room school house in full, 1908-approved school marm attire, and working as a librarian for several years—not in that order
She lives in the Kansas City area with her hot cop husband, two children, and two giant dogs. (And two cats, but they're so naughty we don't talk about them.)
The social media she cares about the most are Spotify and (her very very NSFW) Tumblr. Following her in those places is a true love language, indeed.
