The story begins in the 1970s when Nadine is about to graduate from college. Her goal is to go to NYC with her boyfriend (an actor) and pursue a career in dance. Her father, a rich controlling man in Beaufort, SC, forbids her to go and ties are cut between them when she moves to NY. In NY, she finds life much more difficult than she anticipated - it was almost impossible to find a decent apartment or a waitressing job to pay the bills while she took dance classes. This is a real coming of age novel with a brave and determined heroine. I loved Nadine and her determination to succeed despite the set backs. I laughed with her and cried with her. She is a character that I won't soon forget.
