Review: Dirty Dancing... At Its Best!
Rating: 4 out of 5

NOTE: I received a copy of this book in exchange for an HONEST review.Dancing With The Stars is influencing authors now; "Lead & Follow" by Katie Porter (and the Club Devant series), "Ballroom Blitz" by Lorelei James, etc... As found in some of Katie Porter's non-Harlequin books, this has some HEAT -- so if m/m or menage action in a book turns you off, this probably won't be a favorite read for you. However, the sex is nicely balanced with dancing -- and quite frankly, the descriptions of the dance (as read by someone who DOESN'T know the dances) makes you feel like you are right there dancing with the leads. However, what really drives the story is the darkness that threatens to overtake the characters as they try to get to their happily ever after. Will their inability to communicate... inability to overcome their guilt over the end of their ballroom career... become an inability to become a TRUE partnership?It looks as if there is already a second book out in this series, and that there are a total of 5 planned at this point. Next book, "Chains & Canes" looks to feature a bit more of Remy; I can only hope that one of the future books will show Paul striding back into the door, wearing his white hat, to get his HEA!
