It Burns!

I was reading Eileen Wilks’ novel Tempting Danger and mostly enjoying it, until I hit one of the sex scenes. And then, she wrote something like, “This time adagio,¹Meaning “slow, leisurely tempo” rather than fortissimo.”²Which means “very loud”

There wasn’t one editor or proofreader with any musical knowledge? Those are very basic terms.

Of course, at one point a character’s name changes from “Therese” to “Josefa” with no explanation. And while I won’t swear to it, I’m pretty sure that the organization called “Church of the Redeemer” had a different name at one point (“Church of the Exalted” maybe).
