Rookie Mistake by L.A. Witt, Anna Zabo
Did not finish book.
DNF ~17%
Don't listen to me, I'm cranky.
I was super enjoying this until we got to the first sex scene, and then it just fell off a cliff. I'm all for subverting stereotypical expectations, but I like it a lot less when it feels like a bait & switch. I honestly felt like I was reading entirely different characters--their entire dynamic/interplay/banter etc. totally changed, and it felt really off-putting and bizarre. I am, once again, in the minority here, and maybe it's just this one first sex scene that's very weird, but I didn't find it particularly hot, and I'm pretty sure this is just not the book I wanted to be reading. But like I said, I'm in a mood and everybody else who's read this so far seems to think it's the best thing since sliced bread, so YMMV.
