The fourth book in Parker’s London Celebrities series, THE AUSTEN PLAYBOOK features Freddy, a theater ingenue trying to make her own name apart from her family’s storied West End history. When she’s cast in a play being staged at the estate of London’s most notorious theater critic, sparks and secrets fly.
This is one of my favorite romance series and I think THE AUSTEN PLAYBOOK blows the other books in the series out of the water. It’s a similar setup - young woman looking to be seen for who she is falls for grumpy older man - but everything is balanced just right. He isn’t too grumpy, she isn’t too flighty. They get to know each other! With conversations! The plot tension comes from outside forces rather than a will-they-won’t-they or a series of miscommunications.
And I desperately want to see this play! All of Austen’s characters thrown into a murder mystery and the audience votes on how the plot proceeds, choose your own adventure style? Sign me up!
The romance itself is practically a secondary plot in this book, but the story of family secrets everything is built on is good enough to stand on its own.
Available April 22, 2019. Thanks to Harlequin and Carina Press for the free advance copy.
