Overview

Leanne Kendrick is relatively content with her quiet life as a college librarian, until the charming and irrepressible English professor Rupert Arbery asks her and photography instructor Noah Jaynes for their help on a special project. The problem is that Rupert is actually the late Professor Arbery, and the project is for them to help him cross from his post-death limbo to wherever he's meant to go. To make it more challenging, Leanne and Noah must work together to help Rupert, which presents yet another problem: what is she supposed to do about her "once burned, twice shy" heart, as she falls for Noah Jaynes?

    Sending Rupert Home written by Tracy Fabre as reviewed by Nancy Silveria

    Sending Rupert Home is the 245-page romance novel just released by Tracy Fabre, author of Evan's Castle and Reasons, from StoneGarden.net Publishing, currently available at Amazon.com and Barnes&Noble.
    In her third novel, Ms. Fabre maintained her distinction among authors of the genre by incorporating her earmark wit and human observation into her characters. If you've never read Tracy Fabre, you're in for a real treat. Her dialogue reads like spoken language, grabbing your attention as if sitting in the front row of the theatre while the story unfolds on the stage before your eyes. What this does to the reader is guarantee that you won't want to put the book down!
    The reader falls into the plot as the story opens when quiet and shy librarian Leanne Kendrick finds herself thrust into the company of dark and handsome photography instructor Noah Jaynes at the bequest of one charismatic and persistent English professor Rupert Arbery. Rupert is a ghost who won't take no for an answer when he asks for assistance crossing over to the other side.
    Aside from the obvious dilemma of having to come to terms with seeing a real ghost or admitting she's going crazy, Leanne must also deal with the quickening of her pulse and the rush of heat whenever she's in the presence of widower Noah: who undoubtedly is having trouble of his own, trying to concentrate on the matter at hand instead of how beautiful Leanne appears to his thirsty eyes:
    If you've read Tracy Fabre before, then let me give you a heads up that you, too, are in for a treat. Ms. Fabre has taken the sweet and humorous romance the likes within Evan's Castle and Reasons, and she's turned up the heat for Sending Rupert Home!
    As the plot unfolds further with the mystery of how to send Rupert home to the other side, convinced the answer lies with one of the many women that Rupert toyed with in life, Leanne and Noah find conflict amongst their attraction for each other as old hurts and insecurities from their own past relationships surface:
    Caught between the mysterious letter Rupert delivered to an unknown woman, the missing puzzle piece that might allow Rupert to rest, and Leanne and Noah's brush with the bitter sweet human condition of balancing between the fear of being hurt and the delicately sweet intricacies of falling in love, you'll find yourself wanting to be alone. You'll consider sending your family out to eat at a restaurant, seriously thinking about calling yourself out of work sick, or planning an all-nighter curled up in bed till the sun pops up to say goodnight, just so you don't have to put down Sending Rupert Home.
    Take it from me, whatever excuse you make to free up time for this read, it'll be worth it. Nobody gives a romance reader better satisfaction at the end of story than Tracy Fabre. But don't take my word for it, get a copy for yourself today, and indulge in the luxury of a little well spent me time!!!

    Sending Rupert Home is like spending time in heaven.

    When a popular English professor's sudden car accident throws a quiet college campus into chaos, mystery and romance take over. SENDING RUPERT HOME blends numerous elements of a satisfying novel. Not only are the main characters funny and memorable, but even the secondary ones add their own unique flavors that make modern college life so interesting. There's a close-knit family to warm our hearts, and an intricate plot comprising a love story within the love story. But the best part is the psychic energy of Rupert's ghost, which fuels the sexual energy of Leanne and Noah as they endeavor to finish Rupert's unfinished quest. Very hot. Read it, ducky. Ms. Fabre's writing does not disappoint.

    Great characters! Fun read.

    The publisher's blurb doesn't do this book justice, in my opinion. It covers the basic story, but it doesn't give us the real reason to read this book. Yes, Leanne Kendrick is a librarian whose quiet life is jarred when Rupert Arbery asks her and Noah Jaynes to help him. Yes, Rupert is a ghost -- and an annoying one, too. And yes, Noah is not only smart, but easy on the eyes and a very nice guy.

    But that doesn't address our main character's . well, character! I think you should read this book to get to know Leanne Kendrick. Not only is Leanne a strong character with totally believable thoughts, words and actions, but her wit and humor are just plain fun to read. I found myself wishing I could follow her around and see what she'd say about pretty much anything, since her point of view was simultaneously down-to-earth and amusing.

    We get to sit on Leanne's shoulder as she works through her issues from the past, while trying to wrap her head around a rather insistent ghost with a rather ill-defined mission.

    Her helper in this effort to get Rupert to his ultimate reward is also likable and believable. Noah Jaynes is the "nice guy" every mother wants for her daughter, and I found myself rooting for him almost as soon as he showed up.

    In fact, all Tracy's characters are well-rounded and believable. Even the small parts generated whole people in my mind's eye who stuck with me between readings.

    This book was a fun book to read, and the smooth style and captivating plot kept me turning pages. I read this book in only a few sittings, because I didn't want to put it down. I just had to see what happened next, and to me that's the sign of a great book!

    This book contains sexual scenes that are tastefully done.
