Goodreads Blurb: “At loose end in post World War II London, Lady Margaret Leighton chances upon a movie poster showcasing the young soldier she gave her heart to while serving as a military nurse. Desperate to reconnect with him, she uses her wits and newly discovered writing muse to scheme her way into the movie studio where he is an actor. Molly is certain they will live happily ever after. And they just might… But first Molly has to figure out who she is and what she wants. Can she make this unexpected career work with the expectations of her elite family? She’ll try to do it all while trying to keep the seams on her stockings straight. “
What a fun read! This book is very different from my usual romances. It is exciting and refreshing! The way T. A. Henry tells the story of Lady Margaret Leighton, aka Molly, and her adventure to reconnect with a past love interest is so unique. She uses the main story, the screenplay written by the main character and the witty and hilarious chapter titles to create very entertaining read. Seriously. I loved the chapter titles and looked forward to each one as I progressed!
Mixing up the story with the screenplay kept the story “fresh” and moving forward in a steady pace. Although this story lacked the romance/chemistry that I am used to, I wasn’t disappointed because it was so refreshing and new to me! I really enjoyed Molly as the main character. I enjoyed reading her thoughts and seeing her reactions to all the obstacles that were thrown at her. She was serious yet funny… she packed a lot of comedic relief. I definitely laughed/snickered to myself multiple times.
Overall I really enjoyed this book. Like I said before, it’s not the typical romance book I would have picked out for myself, so that made the experience even better! I do like to mix things up and trying new genres/types of book.
