“Off the Charts Chemistry” is a romance book by Christine Miles. I have
mixed feelings about this book. On one hand, it’s a romance - so one
knows how it’s going to end. There is often comfort in familiarity. For
some, the bit of “sexy time” will be enjoyable. I liked that this was
about two teachers and it was pretty obvious that they were adults. I
had some minor quibbles - such as the fact that while our heroine is a
chemistry teacher, the “chemistry” referred to in the title is more
about her chemistry (and chemical reaction!) to the new football coach.
I’m really not a fan of insta-lust. Additionally, and this must be one
of the most minor nits on the planet, I don’t know how - after watching
one football game - even with a knowledgable and fantastic teacher -
that one would automatically absorb all the football knowledge they
imparted - and recall it to impart to others. The last bit about the
football player, I thought, seemed a bit odd; it bugged me how neatly
tied up that storyline was presented. Overall, this was probably a 3.5
star read - it did provide diversion from my life, it was a quick read,
and it did hold my attention for the overall storyline.
