When You Step: A Novel of Dance, Passion, and Second Chances
Step Into the Vibrant World of Chicago Stepping, Where Passion Ignites on and Off the Dance Floor
About When You Step
On the surface, it looked like Gigi Grant had it all. She managed a successful interior design firm. She had two lovely and precocious teenage daughters. And her best friends, Stacey and Vivian, were always there to offer support and share gossip over a bottle of wine.
A Leap Into the Unknown
But as a single mom Gigi hardly found time for herself, balancing work, home, and of course, the revolving door of never-good-enough love interests. Finally giving in to Vivian’s peer pressure, Gigi signs up for a Chicago Stepping dance class.
Stepping Into Chaos
Although it starts out as a fun diversion from everyday demands, Gigi is soon drawn into a turf war between rival stepping instructors, countless scandals, and other “grown folks” drama. Thankfully to guide her through the chaos is her charming new leading man, Harper Drake. Before she knows it, Gigi finds herself falling for more than just the dance...
