Strictly Come Dating

by

Kathryn Freeman

About the book...

Saturday nights are strictly for dancing… 

As the glitter ball shimmers and sequins flash, forty-year-old Maggie remembers the pull of the dancefloor. But now, as a newly divorced mum of two, Maggie’s certain her dancing days are over. Or are they…? 

Encouraged by her friends, Maggie dusts off her silver stilettoes and enrols for dancing classes, all she needs now is the perfect partner. 

Enter Seb. Young, carefree and hot as hell, Seb is definitely a perfect 10! Even though everything about him is outrageously inappropriate! But as Seb sweeps her across the dancefloor every week, Maggie begins to see a new side to him; kind, caring, funny, strong. 

And Maggie realises that he’s the only one she’d like to foxtrot with…perhaps even forever.

Think So You Think You Can Dance ...but with a Contemporary Romance story to build all the tension, the potential drama, and the feelings you really need to make that routine SHINE!  Add a twist on the May September type couple, two darling little girls, a few feisty seniors, and a gaggle of pre-teens that meddle just as much...and you've got the makings of this story set to dazzle and enchant!

I was listening to Dan + Shay while reading portions of this and..."...girl I wanna be what keeps you up at night..." just struck me as a very appropriate line for our boy Seb!  Yes, he's the younger one in this equation, which doesn't raise other eyebrows as much as it does our leading lady's, but he's not one to give up when his heart is fully engaged.  You see, it lacked direction for most of his life, flying by the seat of his pants, living on a pontoon boat over the Great Barrier Reef, and just generally taking life by the...horns, and truly living in the moment.  But...something about Maggie has his feet feeling less itchy, his mind less wandering, and his soul feeling...content.  Now, if he can just get her on the same page, they'll be two stepping in no time!

Maggie is wary with good reason.  She doesn't want to mess up her friendship with his sisters, nor does she want to get her heart in a tangled mess again after her marriage ended in a less than lovely manner...but the age gap is also giving her pause.  Can she let go enough to listen to her heart instead of just her mind and enjoy the moments given?  Can she fathom forever possibly being an option with this wandering soul?  The lists of questions she creates in her mind are endless, but only time will tell whether they end up in sync, or with crushed hearts AND toes (because yeah...a dance competition also happens which could go either way!).

In the end, I'd give it a 9.5 out of 10! Very entertaining, heartfelt, and yet realistic. Age gap romances when flipped the other way aren't generally even blinked at but put the woman older than the man and all of a sudden you've made news! These two though...make serious sparks, both on and off the dance floor, and that chemistry, that ability to be in step with each other could just see them making a go of something they never saw coming.  Recommended for Contemporary Romance fans to put a skip in your step and a flutter in your heart!

About author Kathryn Freeman...

A former pharmacist, I’m now a medical writer who also writes romance. Some days a racing heart is a medical condition, others it’s the reaction to a hunky hero. 

With a husband who asks every Valentine’s Day whether he has to buy a card (yes, he does), any romance is all in my head. Then again, his unstinting support of my career change proves love isn't always about hearts and flowers - and heroes come in many disguises.
