Canadian here and very open minded but no, I personally think 14 is a bit too young for that sort of book. (Unless the 14-year-old is very mature, there are always exceptions to any "rule".)

16 or 17? Well, maybe. But I would first discuss it with them, make very sure they understood that things portrayed in fiction are not necessarily just like that in real life -- I have a 40-plus cousin who still thinks what he sees in porn flicks is the way that sex really is and when it doesn't go that way (because hello, "actors" faking orgasms!) Something Is Wrong Down There. Definitely NOT the way to learn about adult life & relationships!

Books like 50 Shades are ok for entertainment but certainly not for sex education. There are much better sources for that.
