Off Balance by Jay Hogan The first time I read this I was blown away. I fell in love with the characters, setting and story and felt it was one of the best books I had ever read. When I saw a tour for the book I had to sign up. This is a book well worth reading and one that I highly recommend. It has stayed with me for nearly a year and rereading it was just as enjoyable as the first time when I met and fell in love with the characters. What I liked: * The location: New Zealand * Judah: male ballet dancer at the top…until he was not, left home young, studied abroad, conflicted, outgoing and flirty, meets the perfect partner as he figures out what to do with his life after professional ballet * Morgan: widow, fish and game officer, a decade older than Judah, caring and kind, generous, knows what he wants…really liked him and he was perfect with and for Judah * The dynamics, dialogue, and interactions between Judah and Morgan and their open communication * The family elements brought into the story – both Judah’s and Morgan’s * Terry & his nine-year-old daughter were great friends and played a big part in the story * The small-town community and how they interacted, reacted, and may have grown and changed over time * The medical issue of Meniere’s Disease – a major factor in Judah’s life…and no doubt in other lives, too. Educational but not preachy * Hannah’s shining moment and how it impacted Judah’s future * The way it made me smile and care and feel…really loved this book What I didn’t like: * The bullying that Judah experienced in school * Family members that were unkind…for whatever their own reasons might have been * The losses sustained that more than one had to overcome then move forward from Did I like this book? Definitely! Would I read more by this author? Without a doubt! 5 Stars geen besprekingen | voeg een bespreking toe

HTML: When JUDAH MADDEN flees his tiny suffocating home town in New Zealand for the dream of international ballet stardom, he never intends coming back. Not to Painted Bay. Not to his family's struggling mussel farm. Not to his jerk of a brother. Not with his entire life plan in shreds. And certainly not into the tempting arms of MORGAN WIPENE, the older, ruggedly handsome fisheries officer who seems determined to screw with Judah's intention to wallow in peace. But dreams are fickle things. Shatter them and it's hard to pick up the pieces. Hard to believe. Hard to start again. And the hardest thing of all? Finding the courage to trust in love and build a new dream where you least expected to find it.
