The Delicate Things We Make by Milena McKay

Bitchy characters are a lot of fun (and they get the best dialogue) but the line is fine between smart and sexy bitchiness and irredeemability.

I mean, who could resist Magdalene Nox? I could one hundred per cent relate to Sam’s infatuation from the moment Magdalene entered. Milena McKay is making me change my mind though, one book at a time. This doesn’t mean I can’t enjoy a good ice queen/age gap romance, but I don’t purposefully look for them. I’m not into tropes that much, and if I were, ice queen and age gap probably wouldn’t be at the top of the list. When I pick up (or whatever the digital equivalent is) a book, I don’t really care about tropes. And guess who the dreaded newcomer turns out to be? In an attempt to return the school to its Christian roots, they bring in a new headmistress, an expert on reforming boarding schools, or, as Sam and her colleagues see it, decimating said schools. They also resent the large debts the school finds itself in, due in part to their constant fund-cutting. Over the years, Dragons went from religious and conservative to a much more liberal and inclusive environment, and the trustees aren’t too happy about it. And although she should be focusing on the trouble brewing at her beloved school, she can’t get the woman she had a one night stand with while in New York for a conference out of her mind.

Sam Threadneedle literally grew up at Three Dragons Academy, on Dragons Island in Massachusetts, and at almost thirty, is now the Math Chair. It’s beautiful, it’s fitting without being too revealing, it’s the perfect doorway to the story itself.
