Customer Reviews
A wonderfully sensual romance
Training Tessa is a wonderfully sensual love story, with intriguing characters and a premise that drew me in right away. Tessa wants to learn about sex, so she can satisfy whatever man she winds up marrying, and tasks Nicolo da Parma with teaching her. Her father has betrothed her to an odious man, so naturally, Tessa is reluctantly fascinated by the seductive Nicolo and sparks fly.
I loved the interplay between Tessa and Nicolo, as they both struggle to figure out what she really wants in her life. Since this is historical romance, Tessa lives in a time when women weren’t expected–or really permitted–to enjoy sex. But she can’t resist the pleasures Nicolo teaches her about, and the ultimate question is can either of them resist their attraction and keep from falling for each other.
This novella offers a sensual treat for a summer’s day, or any day of the year. You’ll be whisked away to a delightful world with Tessa and Nicolo, and be irresistibly drawn to root for love to conquer all. Once I started reading this book, I couldn’t put it down–I even read it on my phone while waiting in the doctor’s office, the first time I’d ever read a book on a cell phone. I just had to find out what happened next!
