The Romance Rehearsal

If the first time was a rehearsal, is this the real thing?

Directing a play in London’s West End was an ambition met, only it meant I’d see the boy who was my first everything for the first time since that summer.

Anthony was no boy anymore. He was all man. Charismatic, talented, famous and devastatingly handsome, and now staring in my production.

My leading man - on stage, at least.

He wanted to be my leading man off stage too.

But we’re not kids anymore, and my heart doesn’t think this is a rehearsal. Like all good love stories, the course isn’t going to run smooth, not when he’s carrying a secret that could destroy everything, including my heart – and his.

Was that summer romance a rehearsal for heart break, or a rehearsal for the real thing?

The Romance Rehearsal is a second chance romance, set in London's Theatreland, and contains a smoking hot actor and director who knows exactly what she wants.

Part of The English Gent Romances, and a spin-off from the Callaghan Green series, it can be read as a complete standalone.
