The author has a wonderful grasp and use of descriptive writing that allowed me to visualize the locations as well as the characters. There is an air of mystery and suspense along with the romance and D/s undertones. The main female character, Amelia, is lost, not physically but mentally and emotionally she feels she has no anchor until she is sent to her grandmother’s house where she unexpectedly was able to find what she needed. This is an emotional journey for Amelia as she eventually learns what real love is. A wonderfully written book and a pleasant read.

I do love Ava Sinclair’s daddy books. Each is different in it’s own way and always has a good story to go with it. A Daddy’s Lesson is no exception. Amelia has been ousted as a home wrecker which brings shame on her family’s name. When her father sends her to stay with the grandmother she’s never known but has been raised to be afraid of she is concerned. Instead of the fear her father wishes her to learn she learns what love is truly meant to be like. I really enjoyed this story. It kept me interested the whole time.
A sexy DDLG relationship with an olde worlde feel. Beautifully written and emotional with plenty of feels and heat!
The book is well written with engaging characters and a storyline that flows easily. Amelia is sent to live with her grandmother after being caught in a scandalous affair. Having grown up in in cold household she did not know what to expect from her grandmother. This story is a journey into coming into your own with the help of her grandmother and a true man.

Romantic to the MAX!
Masterfully well-written, “A DADDY’S LESSON” takes a reader down a path which feels a bit Victorian but remains contemporary in all of the ways that matter. Author Ava Sinclair uses her marvelous writing skills to paint what seems at first to be an antiquated situation with the players more concerned with what people will say rather than care how events may have harmed one of their own. And all of this is brought into being with Sinclair’s descriptive prose. A situation in which a young woman has been judged and found lacking with no recourse or say. A situation that has left her heroine, Amelia Falmont, broken, full of shame and self-loathing, and lonely – separated from all she knows and in transit to her aged Grandmother’s ancestral estate of Hillingswood Manner. Sinclair’s writing entices her readers to fall deeply into the Falmont’s family intrigue and Amelia’s preconceptions about nearly everything and everyone associated with the estate. Then we meet Elias McCann, the groundskeeper for the estate, a man designated by her grandmother to tutor Amelia in “nature” – whatever that is to encompass! However, it is this strong yet quiet tower of a man who takes charge of Amelia, and slowly; everything changes. I absolutely loved “A DADDY’S LESSON!” It had all the necessary feels, heat and suspense that a good romance needs and a chemistry between the main characters that cracked and bubbled along the slow burn to an anticipated explosion that was epic and erotic. I voluntarily read an advanced copy of “A DADDY’S LESSON” and this is my honest, voluntary review. While I normally limit novellas to 4 out of 5 stars because of their length, this one earns that extra ½ star because it is just that novel and good! This romance will keep you glued to its pages in the BEST way possible! Get your copy today! Happy pages!
