Midlife, mischief, and more sequins than sense. Agnes and Lesley are a couple "on more than a break." For years, Agnes ruled the pantomime stage in thigh-high boots and glitter. Now in her sixties, she's desperate for one last starring role. Lesley, on the other hand, wants her partner to hang up the suspenders and grow old quietly. She's fed up with constantly pandering to Agnes's ego. When the lead role goes to a younger woman, Lesley dares to hope. She pictures evenings without sequins and weekends without matinees-until Agnes accepts a minor comic role. Furious, Lesley leaves Agnes for good, vowing never to see her again. But when Lesley is offered an even funnier part, the pair find themselves locked in a laugh-off feud that could end in disaster-or a standing ovation. Will Agnes and Lesley collide spectacularly, or will sharing the stage rekindle the love they thought they'd lost? Panto Boy is the second novella in the Pantomime (Backstage Love Stories) series, although each book can be read as a standalone. Perfect for readers who enjoy farcical comedy, ridiculous costumes, eccentric characters, and small-town chaos.
