Spotlight Series, Book 2

Autumn Brown is thrilled to join the small staff at the SS Spotlight Theatre. She’s even happier to be hired without anyone knowing of her connection to her famous grandmother. Unlike the well-known actress whom she hasn’t seen in years, Autumn prefers spreadsheets over the bright lights. Her job as production manager is her dream.

She loves the team and longs to be part of the theater’s family, especially since her estranged grandmother is her only surviving relative. Then her grandmother pays an unexpected visit…

The lovable cast of characters, along with unexpected twists, made this book a page-turner. The love and friendship between the owners made the barn theater an appealing place to spend time. The story is told from the viewpoint of Autumn and one of the owners.

As a reader, I was quickly drawn into the world of the theater. The author’s understanding of the various jobs involved in putting on a production shines through in this book. A glossary of terms at the beginning was very helpful in understanding the lingo.

An enjoyable read! I want to spend more time with these characters and go back to read the first book in the series. Hopefully, there will be a Book 3!

Recommended for readers of contemporary women’s fiction.
