The Role She Plays

Laura Robinson’s life is on a desperate downward spiral... Both Laura and her dear friend Bette are prostitutes working the streets of Bath, but now Bette is dying, and the possibility of Laura falling into the clutches of a renowned and brutal pimp grows ever more likely. She has to find a way out. Her dreams of being onstage are only heightened once she gets a job as an orange seller at the Theatre Royal. And then she comes to the attention of a handsome and determined playwright. As soon as Adam Lacey sees Laura, he knows he has found the perfect woman to play his heroine Lucinda-he just needs to convince Laura the same. Yet, how was he to know how affected he would be by her violet eyes, fierce intelligence, or her need to look after everything and everyone...including him.
