The Steps Between Us (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798231969623)

Waltz. Tango. Foxtrot. Murder?

When Ava Thompson walks into a ballroom dance studio, she's just looking for a little rhythm to soothe the midlife blues. What does she find - or rather who? Hungarian dance instructor Nandi - 20 years her junior, magnetic, and dangerously charming. Ava quickly finds the dance lessons challenging. But Nandi lavishes her with attention and makes her feel seen for the first time in decades.

Naturally, Ava's long-time husband, Jack, is less enthusiastic. He has his suspicions about the handsome dance pros and what exactly they are peddling.

But as Ava struggles to curb the sparks of a crush on Nandi that threatens to burn out of control, dark secrets swirl beneath the glitter. A dance pro who meets an untimely end. A scratched-up photo. A burner phone. A bloodstained package.

This story isn't just a midlife glow-up. It's a high-stakes ballroom thriller, and Ava's dancing straight into the fire.
