tedwordsFor those who enjoy romance novels, I'd like to recommend my friend J.M. Cornwell's book, Past Imperfect.
I "met" J.M. a few years ago through Live Journal (a.k.a.![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
fixnwrtr), and she quickly became one of my favorite posters. So, when I heard that her book had been published a few months ago, of course, I had to pick up a copy.
Even though I'm not a reader of romance normally, I'm glad I read her book. It reads just like the J.M. that I know and love on Live Journal: smart, confident, and eminently quotable. J.M. clearly has a love for the classics, and I especially liked her hints of Roman mythology within the story. And, her main character has a bathroom I would die for.
Since two of her main characters both fly planes (and do so frequently in the book), I thought it would be fitting to finish her book on my way to El Paso, and sure enough, I went through the last 100 pages in one sitting.
I won't give anything away, but let's just say that it's a book of love stolen and ultimately earned. And, the story ended up the way I hoped that it would, which pleased me to no end. I was going to scream bloody murder if it had gone in another direction...
