What's life like on the tenure track?

For Assistant Professor of Sociology, Dr. Deja Evans, it sucks. Hard. Every day.

Between the class prep, the meetings, grading student work, trying to find time to complete her own research and the meetings, she didn't have a life, she had a digital calendar that decided whether she got to wallow in her feelings at 3pm or 7pm, on Thursday or maybe Sunday. And the worst meeting of them all was the two-and-a-half-hour, once a month Faculty Senate, which was drier than her dating life, duller than her skin in winter and far longer than her attention span.

The only thing that made those never-ending Faculty Senate meetings bearable was watching Dr. Alejandro Mendoza, Associate Professor of History, breathe. For years, Deja had harbored a kind of secret crush on the sexiest man on campus never thinking that he would ever feel the same, until one unexpected day, they have a steamy after hours encounter in her office and suddenly her life seems much more exciting.

That lasts about half a minute.

Over the course of a hectic academic year, Deja tries to survive her classes, help her students, prepare herself for her third-year review, and most important of all, she has to learn how to get out of her own way and just let Alejandro love her.

Ooooh this was steamy!

It was ALSO very realistic in the portrayal of life in academia and how the tenure track sucks the life right out of your soul. ( )

DNF - I thought this sounded interesting, and like it would be a fun romance between two teachers/professors. No relationship building. They just hopped into it after yearning for each other from afar for over a year. I tried, but it was just not for me.

Review: DNF @25%

When I say "this book skips over the good parts," would you know what I mean? Deja has been pining for Alejandro for a year. I was looking forward to the woo, the her catching the guy she's dreaming about.

What I got instead was a man pining back and tired of waiting for her. What followed was sex scenes and their first date which basically catalogued not thoughts, feelings, or setting, but what they were doing.

This isn't my style. There isn't dialogue and inner thoughts tend to be based on attractiveness. Just cause they pine for a year doesn't make me want to skip the flirtatious glances, fleeting touches and butterflies in the stomach.

Both characters are professors, which I loved, but I just didn't have chemistry with this couple and their story.
