Office Hours by Katrina Jackson

4.0

This was my first time reading/listening to a book by this author and I had an amazing time!

This story starts off with Deja working as a college professor trying to become tenured in her department. But the road to tenured has been very rough for her. Over the years, she’s been pinning over this fine tall, best dressed, highly intelligent history professor Alejandro. But what happens after a long faculty meeting when Alejandro offers to walk Deja back to her office and confess that he’s been pinning after her too? It turns into some very long office hours!

Straight out the gate I fell in love with Alejandro. From the way he talked and affirmed Deja, to the way he took his time when is came to pleasing her, listening to her, taken care of her, and putting his heart on the line for her. There was never a point in time in this book were I didn’t love Alejandro. This man cooked for her even though cooking isn’t his strongest skill. (Also I hope his brothers get their own book!) Alejandro is the blueprint. There were many instances where I wish Deja anxiety was talked about more and I wish the book would have taken a step further and gotten her professional help but I’m glad that Alejandro was there for her and understood the pressure she was under with trying to become tenured.
