Blog Tour: Stage Kisses on Halfpenny Lane by Clodagh Murphy

 

Two old flames. One small stage. Trouble is just waiting in the wings …  

Mimi and her sisters are still struggling to keep their beloved Halfpenny Lane Theatre afloat. 

So when Hollywood heartthrob Rocco Agnew wants a part in their upcoming production of Private Lives it promises to be a lifesaver. Rocco sets hearts racing and ticket sales soaring wherever he goes. 

The only problem: Rocco is Mimi’s ex – the one who broke her heart – and she’s slated to play  
opposite him in a role that will bring them far too close for comfort. 

They can’t turn down Rocco. Mimi doesn’t want to bow out. Will the little theatre be big enough for both of them?  

This is the second book in the Halfpenny Lane series, but it is a complete story and can be enjoyed as a standalone.

Review

Sweet and funny, this second chance romance was a fun read. It’s second in a series about three sisters who own a rundown theatre in Dublin. They are putting on a play and an unexpected choice of leading man is great publicity for the show but personally troubling for the leading lady. Mimi never got over her first love Rocco when he moved to LA in search of fame and fortune. Now he’s back and looking like he regrets losing her just as much.

I really liked Mimi - she was self-aware enough to know when she wasn’t being fair, but flawed enough to make some poor decisions anyway. I did get impatient with her Sam storyline but it made me like him more as a character (which is good because I suspect he’s going to lead the next book). Rocco was a bit more of an enigma but sharp-eyed Mimi noticed enough to let us know what he’s thinking even if she can’t put the votes together. 

The rehearsal process and attendant cast shenanigans were a nice look behind the curtain and introduced some interesting characters who I’d like to see more of. 

Overall the book was light and funny, so if you like second chances of live theatre, give it a go!
