There are so many questionable things in this.
The way the author includes stereotypes about women, gay men, people of color...

I get that he's been suspended, but why doesn't he call the precinct?

This dude is so gross. Who follows a colleague home for a booty call. And then decides to sleepover without being asked!?

The way this author is writing this woman cop is so disrespectful and bizarre. I might have to DNF soon. I'm kind of only reading right now because I wanna write a scathing review

I HATE that Gutierrez was taken off this case. What was the author thinking? I get he wants to pair the two lust birds together, but why does he have to disrespect the woman cop? She was awesome. What's gonna happen to her? And how does she get caught now!? Make that make sense.

Darn it! I liked her. I have a bad feeling that his hook up is going to be his new partner and I really don't want that!

This hookup scene feels off and exploitative. The dude knows the other guy is on a drug and he makes moves on him!? Gross.

I've heard great things about this series, but I've also noticed that sort of thing is so much more prevalent in older books (and movies, and all media)... and sadly, I remember noticing it a lot less back in the day. As in, not that it wasn't there, but that my own awareness just glossed over it because it was so much more normalized 🫤 So, yay process? 😅 Anyway, just a rant. Sorry that it seems to be taking you out of the story, though!
Is it older? I didn't realize. But ya, definitely has some stuff that hits a bit icky to my modern ears.
@Snow, sadly, I will not be recommending this one! It's an interesting premise but the execution gives me the ick.
20 years old per publication date. But yeah, I completely get that squick factor when things don't age well.
