Synopsis
Don't think.

Don't question.

Just do.

The anonymous note wasn't for me.

Don't get me wrong, I'm not in the habit of reading other people's mail, but it was just a piece of paper with a few lines scrawled on it, clearly meant for the apartment upstairs. It looked so innocent, but decidedly— deliciously—it was not.

Before replacing the note—and the ones that followed— in its rightful slot, I devoured its contents: suggestions, instructions, commands. Each was more daring, more intricate and more arousing than the last… and I followed them all to the letter.

Before the notes, if a man had told me what to do, I'd have told him where to go. But submission is an art, and there's something oddly freeing about doing someone's bidding…especially when it feels so very, very good. But I find that the more I surrender, the more powerful I feel—so it's time to switch up roles.

We play by my rules now.

Review
I really enjoyed Megan Hart's voice in Switch. The relaxed, conversational tone of the novel made everything that happened seem so real. The dialogue was great, never forced, and used realistic phrases. I loved that Paige was concerned about sounding "like a total douche." The novel was a fast read and had some very humorous moments. The story rang true with it's message that sex and power are linked in ways we don't always see. Being that this was an erotic novel, I feel I have to judge the sex scenes a little. Unfortunately they just weren't working for me. Realistic? Mostly. Scorching hot? Not really. When read for the story, this book is very good. When read for titillation, Switch falls a little flat.
