A review by local_hat
Devil in Winter by Lisa Kleypas

medium-paced

3.0

This one came out in 2009. Not even that old! And while it proves my point that romance used to get much better copyediting, the casual racism, casual fat-hate, casual classism, casual ableism, and casual iffy consent have aged a lot less well. I definitely used to love Kleypas and her multiple series set in the same universe... and now I think I'm glad I fell away from them and haven't re-read any recently.
