"Playing the Part" by Jen Turano (Litfuse Blog Tour)

My Review...

New York City actress Lucetta Plum is forced to go into hiding after a fan’s interest turns threatening. Her widowed, elderly friend Abigail Hart offers to help her out by hiding her at Ravenwood Castle, the home of Abigail’s eccentric grandson Bram Haverstein. Lucetta has no time for matchmaking and plans to keep her distance from Bram. She has been self-sufficient since she was 13 and sees no reason why that should change now. Bram has admired her from a distance for some time and can hardly believe she is at his castle. Lucetta will be in for an adventure when strange events start happening at Ravenwood. She is determined to get to the bottom of things. Will Bram come to see that Lucetta is not all he expected? Is it possible for them to realize that they are exactly what the other needs?

This is the third and final book in Turano’s “A Class of Their Own” series. Turano’s signature humor, mystery, and romance combine. The zany scenes and fun characters are distinctive traits of the author. There is not as much spiritual element as some may expect to find in this lighthearted historical romance, but it is neatly woven throughout the story. The reader will likely be chuckling at many points in the book. It is best to read the books in order to fully appreciate this charming series.
