Book Blurb:
In the glamorous world of ballroom, love and dancing do not always mix.
Professional dancer Anita Goodman has learned that lesson the hard way. With her studio and her reputation on the line, she has to take a chance on the last person she ever wanted to partner with: her best friend.
Patrick O’Leary has loved Anita since high school, but he has languished in the Friend Zone for long enough. He will take this last chance to prove to her that love is greater than winning. Neither of them realize that conquering their rising attraction won’t be their biggest obstacle. Someone does not want them to be together, and will stop at nothing to get their way. Love, dance, and danger. It’s a Ballroom Blitz.
Excerpt:
The music slowed to a close, and Patrick gently lowered her back to the floor, his hands sliding along the sides of her body, trying to make the few beats last as long as possible. He breathed heavily, deeply, his heartbeat racing faster than was probably wise.
This woman would kill him one day. He would probably let her.
His gaze met Anita’s. Had he remembered to temper the fire within him? Her eyes widened. Was that a flicker of desire? A momentary tightening of her hand against his? Finally, finally, maybe he could just incline his head a little—
And she pushed him away, standing up and moving back to the sound system all at once. She took a long, long drink of water from her travel mug. “Well,” she said at last. “Your standard isn’t bad. Let’s try jive.”
