title: Men Dancing
author: Radford, Cherry
description: "A chance meeting with a performer you've always admired - an exciting story to tell your family and friends. But not if that excitement won't go away, and turns into the chronic ache of obsession...Dr Rosie Buchanan - weary hospital scientist, frustrated musician, cheated wife and struggling mother - finds herself sitting next to charismatic Royal Ballet star Alejandro Cortes on a London train. Half an hour and a shared bag of errant Maltesers later, she starts to feel she's misheard her true calling - and is soon doing research of a very different kind. Rosie arranges a bogus research visit at Alejandro's home, and is thrilled when he and his girlfriend ask her to become their piano teacher. And she tries to overcome the pain of her failing marriage to former soulmate Jez, and the obsession with Alejandro, by accepting consolation from an old friend, consultant Ricardo Pereira. But so begins a complex dance of passion, betrayal, loss and redemption...Sensual, witty, and at times deeply moving, Cherry Radford's first novel is a sweeping tour-de-force. - "A great read for Strictly fans" Sir Bruce Forsyth CBE"
