The Gentleman Mentor (Lessons with the Dom Book 1)

I have to say that i had really enjoyed this reading the gentleman mentor it was a really good book i like how all the characters were very well written but i must say that when cameron first meet Brielle he had liked her from the moment he laid eyes on her. But considering his past relationship on how hurt he was he was forcing himself on not to fall in love with anybody but as you can see that didn't quite work out as he thought it would because he ended up falling in love in the end. And as for Brielle she was just looking for love her self in a different way because the person that she thought she was going to be didn't quite see her that way he only saw her as a friend but i think that once she really knew the truth about who kurby was and how he felt about her her feelings was truly hurt but i can say that after everything that Brielle had been through in a strange way with her meet cameron it only made her stronger in the end and it made her realize who she really had feelings for but other than that it was a good book.

When I first read the synopsis for Kendall Ryan's The Gentleman Mentor I was so intrigued. I wanted to snatch the book and dive in, orrrrrrr maybe contact him myself ;) And after having the privilege of reading the book early I still feel the exact same way! Damn fictional characters!We have a sweet, sexually frustrated young woman who underestimates the power of her own sexuality. When she decides to take matters in her own hands and gather the skills she feels she is lacking to get the attention of the man she has been secretly in love with for 5 years she decides to answer an ad for - The Gentleman Mentor. From the very start the conversations push the limits of her comfort, yet excite her.The two have an immediate connection and the chemistry between them is explosive. Yet there are secrets that surround them by the very nature of the relationship they have set up.. that of student and teacher. Their arrangement is supposed to be for The Gentleman Mentor to teach her seduction techniques. Will their relationship stay here? Or is there truly more between them? Or will their real lives interfere and keep them apart?I loved every inch of this book. I thought it was a very different story-line that had me hooked right away and never let me go. It was steamy and romantic but also had a great message of discovering yourself and your self worth. Many of us have been in that place where we don't recognize just how wonderful we truly are. Now we don't all answer a newspaper ad to have some sexy god help us discover what is hiding right in plain sight, but we can recognize and identify with those feelings.I definitely recommend this book. This is one you will want to snuggle down and get right in to!I received a complimentary copy in exchange for an honest review.

WHAT THE WHAT? THIS WAS PURE DELICIOUSNESS!I had high hopes for this book. When I read the blurb I was sold. But truth be told, I can be a picky reader. Most times a blurb will sell me on a novel and then I'll go to read it and be left underwhelmed at best. It happens more often that not. That was NOT the case with this. God, I'm still buzzing. I can actually feel myself tingling just writing this review.I can't even explain it, to say that I enjoyed it wouldn't even come close.I LOVED THIS BOOK.O.M.G. I REALLY, REALLY, REALLY LOVED THIS BOOK.It was sinfully sexy. A 10++++ on the NUCLEAR, HEAT-O-METER, but even with all that sizzle it was surprisingly heart felt and sweet. It's like the author didn't just give us a smut but put some serious soul behind it. It was MORE than decadent and pulse pounding. It was so flipping enjoyable.I almost want to take my kindle, stand on my little podium and SCREAM, "THIS, READ THIS. THIS. THIS. THIS. JUST THIS. OMG. BOOK GOLD PEOPLE."I'm seriously high on this book.Woo... basically you don't need to know more than the blurb. You just need to go ONE CLICK and READ. Trust me, you're gonna feel so good once you finish. Hale is tasty Dom Perfection.And for those of you who may think that you don't like BDSM, rest assure that this is LIGHT. It's not intense, not brutal. Hale is a gentlemen through and through. GOD. He makes me smile so wide my cheeks actually hurt. I am in love.GO READ. There is only yumminess to be had in this epic book! I cannot wait for more!

With a fun and sexy premise, I flew through the pages of this book. If the Gentleman Mentor was still in business I would definitely shoot him an email!Brielle was a timid, shy bookworm looking for a major confidence boost and some help to move out of the friend-zone when she stumbled upon the Gentleman Mentor. She was looking to take control of her life and that’s exactly what he offered, in the form of a sexual mentor. Brielle really grew as the story progressed, she definitely developed more confidence and she thrived under the attention.The Gentleman Mentor/Dom/Hale/Cameron was very a very self-assured hero and his domineering nature was totally sexy. I really liked that Hale and Brielle didn’t go into full-on BDSM. He was very clearly in charge of all their sexual encounters but the whips and chains never came out to play. Where Brielle grew in confidence, Hale grew emotionally. He was able to open himself up more and we were able to glimpse more about him and his past.There were a few times when I felt like Brielle should have made Hale "work for it” more but I feel like that may have been lost in a few of the time jumps we experienced. I think I was anticipating a bit more angst/drama in the book so the ease with which it ended seemed a bit fantastical to me. However, in comparison with the tone of the entire book, it was fitting.This was a great intro to Ms. Ryan, and I can't wait to get my hands on Reece's book! Older brothers best friend? Sign me up!

Wow, this was not exactly what I was expecting but then I'm not sure what I was expecting. This book jumps straight into it from page one and just pulls you in. I enjoyed the dynamic between Brielle and Hale and from the beginning you can see they are made for each other. Throughout this book you see Hale bringing Brielle out of her shell. This is definitely one of the most steamiest books I have read from Kendall Ryan and I think it caught me by surprise just how steamy it was!

I really enjoyed this book, I have read other books by kendall Ryan and liked them too. I thought the story line was ok if not a little predictable, and I did think it that Hale went from being a stong Dom character to putty in the ladies hands a little too quickly but overall it was a good read and I finished it quickly. The sex scene's very sexy and hot and so was Cameron Hale !!! I will read more of this authors books in the future

Glad that they both managed to find each other and it had a good ending was routing for them all along

Loved hale very enjoyable book and characters can't wait to read the next book,well done Kendall keep up the good work.

a gentle introduction to bdsm, its not as full on as some stories of this type can be. intense in the correct places but full of love, hale and brielle compliment each other as a couple. this is a very enjoyable story without the extremes of some similar books
