My review:

A wonderful conclusion to Jen Turano's A Class of Their Own series!  A motley crew, a gothic vibe, ghostly knights, mystery, intrigue, and hilarious antics make Playing the Part a must-read.

While Lucetta played a part in the previous two novels, she really shines in Playing the Part. I enjoyed getting to know her better and finding out her family secrets.

Bram has a few secrets of his own (like his dungeon). When secrets start getting revealed, you can't help but laugh. More communication between Lucetta and Bram would have gone a long way. 

I enjoyed this series and look forward to reading more from Turano!

★★★★/5

Synopsis (Goodreads):

Lucetta Plum is an actress on the rise in New York City, but is forced to abandon her starring role when a fan's interest turns threatening. Lucinda's widowed friend, Abigail Hart, is delighted at the opportunity to meddle in Lucetta's life and promptly whisks her away to her grandson's estate to hide out.

Bram Haverstein may appear to simply be a somewhat eccentric gentleman of means, but a mysterious career and a secret fascination with a certain actress mean there's much more to him than society knows.

Lucetta, who has no interest in Abigail's matchmaking machinations, has the best intentions of remaining cordial but coolly distant to Bram. But when she can't ignore the strange and mysterious things going on in his house, it'll take more than good intentions to keep her from trying to discover who Bram is behind the part he plays.
