Alicia and Roy Street are currently on tour with their novel Kiss Me, Dancer. This story follows Casey Richardson, a ballet dancer and working girl that finds passion in teaching others how to express themselves through dance. Though she might not have made it into professional dancing like her younger sister, her talent and drive is still there. Casey is devastated to learn that she might lose her dance studio – and home – for not reading the fine print in her leasing contract.
Drew Byrne, a wealthy, arrogant man, disapproves of his nine year old son being in Casey’s dance class. He wants his son to focus on sports, something manly. But when he sees how Casey’s class is helping Josh break out of his shell, he lets him report back to class. He may have another reason for allowing Josh back in Casey’s studio – he has an on the dance teacher herself. But could a romance between these opposites ever work?
I thoroughly enjoyed Kiss Me, Dancer. The story is well-written and kept my attention throughout. Casey and Drew are complete opposites who fight their romance for so long, but the chemistry between the two sizzles between the pages. I even loved Josh’s character, a shy little boy who loves to dance to hip-hop routines. Everything was well put together, from the romance to the inadequate feeling Casey has when being compared to her sister, to Casey building her new business. The only gripe I have is how long Casey and Drew fought their attraction. I was actually unsure at one point if they would be able to stay together due to them both being so stubborn! But overall, fun book that I would recommend. Looking forward to the sequel that focuses on Casey’s brother!
