Je viens de commencer Mr and Mrs Wrong de Fay Robinson, l'auteur de
Christmas on snowbird mountain et A man like Mac. C'est excellent, l'auteur
flirte avec la perfection. Je vous mets un court passage (le début du
roman) pour que vous puissiez prendre la mesure de son style. Vous me direz
ce que vous en pensez.

He showed up without warning on a Thrusday night. He said he'd left his
boxing gloves behind when he'd moved out and needed them, but they both knew
he kept them in his locker at the gym.
Lucky undid the latch on the screen door and the one on her heart and
invited him in - again. Last time, the supposedly missing object had been
his extra pistol. Before that, a basketball.
In the four months since Jack had taken an apartment in town, putting their
eleven-month marriage in question, the'd searched for a "favorite" shirt
he'd never worn and for tools he didn't use. They'd turned the cabin upside
down looking for a first-edition Hemingway he didn't own and for a
burglary-case file he'd never have left lying around. The only things the'd
ever found were the zippers to each other's pants.

J'adore la façon dont elle brosse le portrait de Jack rien qu'en évoquant
ses actes. Et la suite du livre est plein de bonnes surprises du même genre.
