To Have and to Hoax by Martha Waters
3.0

I'm clearly reading too much romance (and I've reached the point where I skim all the sex scenes; I know the routine) but the light narrative stakes and the resolvable heartbreak fit my current mood. I confess to not understanding why James and Violet haven't reconciled earlier -- why did the author choose to make their estrangement last four years?
