I’m not sure I have enough words for how much I enjoyed this book. I had about 800 things to do today and yet I just kept coming back to this story. I loved the past and present scenes, and I loved the delicious tension between Jack and Cynthie. If the movie they worked on was a film I could go see, I would be first in line.
Laura Wood hit the pining, angst, and pent up attraction right on the head! The wet t-shirt scene (you will ALL remember it once you read it) had me kicking and screaming. It was more than just a second chance romance; Let’s Make a Scene is a story about patience, trust, and when make-believe becomes all too real.
I loved this book so much that I’m going to immediately go back and read Theo’s story in Under Your Spell. The characters are so vivid in this story and I can only wish to be on the set with them. The only notes I have for this book are how I need more just like it!!!
Thank you to Atria Books for the opportunity to read and review this book! I received a free advance copy of this book via NetGalley and am voluntarily leaving a review. All opinions expressed are my own.
