Making Up

3/5. Het romance about a lady aerialist and a dude makeup artist of the enemies-to-fuckbuddies-to-lovers variety. Charming, easy read, which I say even though the major emotional arc of this book is recovery from an emotionally abusive relationship. But it's the sort of recovery story I really like – she's kicked him out of her life and it's been a year, so her story isn't really about him anymore. He's not relevant. It's about herself, and recovering from the blow of learning she had such terrible judgment, and rebuilding from there.
