Damn, Heidi Cullinan brought tears to my eyes again on this emotional journey. Very few authors have the ability to create a character that you can actually feel but Ms Cullinan does it every time. Both Ed and Laurie have self esteem problems from totally different experiences. The story felt to me that each man had the other on a pedestal at different times. I think that Ed put Laurie high up there at the beginning of the story and then it was Ed up on the pedestal. Finally, toward the end when each man rediscovered himself and came to understand the other did they even out. The secondary characters were interesting but this stogy was all Ed and Laurie learning to live to the fullest with the hand that life dealt them. If you haven't read this excellent book yet, you need to. It should get an extra sixth star just for the cover. Laurie had a bad experience at a ballroom competition and will no longer compete or perform in public. Ed had his football career ended by a bad hit. They currently work at a community center where they get on each other's nerves. But eventually they learn to compromise and begin ballroom dancing together. That dancing leads to love. I enjoyed this book very much. I liked seeing what a football player does when his career is over. I liked that they could connect over the tango. The characters were good. Laurie's mother was a piece of work but the rest were okay. His dad could have used some therapy also. I look forward to reading more of her books. geen besprekingen | voeg een bespreking toe

The only fly in his ointment is the dance instructor, Laurie Parker, who can't seem to stay out of his way.Laurie was once one of the most celebrated ballet dancers in the world, but now he volunteers at Halcyon Center to avoid his society mother's machinations. It would be a perfect escape, except for the oaf of a football player cutting him glares from across the room.When Laurie has a ballroom dancing emergency and Ed stands in as his partner, their perceptions of each other turn upside down. Dancing leads to friendship, being friends leads to becoming lovers, but most important of all, their partnership shows them how to heal the pain of their pasts. Because with every turn across the floor, Ed and Laurie realize the only escape from their personal demons is to keep dancingâ??together.This novel has been previously published and has been revised from its original relea Geen bibliotheekbeschrijvingen gevonden. |
