Ballroom Blitz - Contemporary Romance Novel by Lorelei James
She's got the rhythm, but he's got all the right moves.
After years on the road, rock drummer Jon White Feather is home from tour to reassess his music career. When his shy niece begs him to take a ballroom dancing class, Jon agrees, aware he's not Fred Astaire material. Still, it stings when his sexy-hot instructor--who makes his heart do the cha-cha--deals his ego a low blow: he has no rhythm.
Maggie Buchanan is doing everything to make ends meet since her IT career fizzled, including teaching couples dancing at the community center. She's prepared for anything--except her immediate attraction to the bad boy rocker who doesn't know his right foot from his left.
As Jon sets out to prove he can rock his body--and hers--their sexual chemistry burns a path across the dance floor, straight to the bedroom. And Maggie wasn't expecting a man with limited dance skills would know exactly how to sweep her off her feet.
