kenjariMaking Up
by Lucy Parker
This is the third book in the London Celebrities romance series set in the London theatre scene. Trix is an actress and acrobat about to take over the lead role in the Cirque du Soleil style show she's in. Leo is a makeup artist who's just been hired for the show. He and Trix knew each other when they were in school and had a fraught relationship. They've spent the last ten years sniping at each other during their fleeting encounters. Now their sniping turns into sparks and those sparks explode into passion.
I really liked this one. There's a lot of great banter between Trix and Leo, and I loved the way their connection grows. I also really liked that they talked about things, albeit imperfectly. They didn't wait until the end to reveal important things about their pasts and how it affected them. There's no third act break-up, just an emotional hurdle to overcome, which Trix and Leo do in a mature and affecting way.
