Switched

Ducky is a chaotic theoretical physicist at CERN, and her only love is physics. The last thing she wants is a man who would force her to reorder her priorities and put him and her future family ahead of her work. 

Henry is a neat experimental physicist, and he believes that he has found his one true love. Which happens to be Ducky. He also happens to be her boss.

It seems that there is no future where these two would be together. Until an anomaly at the particle collider has them switch bodies! Then, mayhem ensues!

This is an extremely cute story! From the get-go, you get a feel for Ducky's chaotic personality, but you cannot begrudge her wanting to fulfill her career goals. But then Henry comes to rescue her from being literally stuck to a bar bench, and it's clear that they are falling for each other. But then Ducky goes about it in the worst possible way, and now her future boss REALLY doesn't seem to like her.

When an electric storm happens and they switch bodies, things become extremely ridiculous! It was hilarious how Ducky was trying to navigate in Henry's body, and I would have loved to get an extra chapter that showed what Henry's morning had been like in more detail!

Seeing Henry's family interactions with Ducky in Henry's body was so endearing. It allowed her to get a better sense of how much she had affected him when he first met her. 

The flashbacks that they both got of some of each other's significant memories were ingenious, and my favorite part is that they didn't dance around that. When she figured out that she was his first, she brought it up with him, and when he realized that she loved him, he immediately confronted her. Having them communicate well with each other made me root for them even more. 

And she was willing to show a vulnerable side of herself by asking him not to leave CERN.

I also loved that Ducky got to resolve her conflicted feelings regarding her mom's life choices. In an ideal world, her mom would have spoken to her and explained things to her directly. But humans often don't do what's best for them. But getting that explanation, even in Henry's body was very cathartic. 
And for two very smart physicists, it took them quite a long time to figure out what they needed to do to switch back. 

As I was reading this book, I kept thinking how much I would love to watch a movie of it!

And, since I have missed out on reading Ghosted, I have to go back and find out what Jillian and Daniel's story is because I am intrigued!
