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.
