The Dancing Trilogy

If you’re going through hell, you might as well dance through it.

Politics affects our lives, but it defines theirs.

Affairs of the heart have always played a role in my novels. Whether it is Michael Bennit and Kylie or Tierra and Josh, love has a place in my character development. I took it one step further with Wyatt and Stowe in Banning Santa. Now, romance is the central element in this series. The catch? I'm a thriller author, and I'm not about to make it easy for them.

This series is born from the premise of what happens when two wayward souls find each other - and the world tries to tear them apart. It mixes my love of travel and my fascination with dancing, which I don't do well. And in some relationships, it feels like the world is working against you. This time, it really is. Braden and Lyla have different life experiences and are both on the run - for very different reasons.

Enduring love is forged in fire, and these two are about to put that to the test. The trials and tribulations they face in The Dancing Life is only the beginning of their journey - one that will get more treacherous as the trilogy unfolds. Are they meant to be together, or are they the greatest set of star-crossed lovers since Romeo & Juliet?

The Dancing Trilogy is a planned three novel set that will explore true love and real adversity. Can Braden and Lyla find happiness, or will overcoming their pasts be too much to bear?

PRAISE FOR THE DANCING TRILOGY

If you enjoy dancing, traveling the world, or immersing yourself into a life unchained to routines, then you will want to pick up this book as there is plenty of life lessons intertwined with the suspense, betrayal, greed, and deception.

Amazon Review
Once I started reading, I had a hard time putting it down. Unfortunately work and life prevented me from finishing it in one sitting but I did finish it the second time. It was worth the time spent. The story has suspense, adventure in foreign lands, villains, and intrigue with the spice of romance. The main characters show some growth and I cannot wait to read the sequel(s).

Amazon Review
The reawakening of Braden as he traveled with Lyla and how his life changed for the better was well portrayed. This is definitely a book worth reading and you won't be disappointed.
