Dancing on the Sand
by Marilyn Baxter
He fought hard to hide his biggest secret.
Ryan Kidd wasn’t sure what was worse: the injury that ended his Major League Baseball pitching career or being “volunteered” to be the B¬arefoot Bay Bucks’ contestant in a charity dance competition. Things got complicated when his heart threw him a curve ball and he fell under the spell of his teacher, Amara Perez. They were supposed to dance the tango, but Ryan found himself wanting to waltz into her heart instead. However, when the secret he’s fought hard to keep hidden puts Amara’s life in jeopardy, will he continue to two-step around the issue or face it head on?
Would his secret risk her life?
For Amara Perez the opportunity to participate in a TV-style dancing competition held at Casa Blanca Resort & Spa was a godsend. In addition to providing publicity for Allegro, the dance studio where she taught, the prize money could help fund a cause close to her heart – adult illiteracy. Amara was determined to dance away with first place, but would her celebrity partner, former Major League Baseball pitcher Ryan Kidd, dance away with her heart before the end of the competition?
