The Waltz (Say it with Sequins, Book 2)

*I received this book from NetGalley in exchange for an honest review*

I liked this novella so much! I’ve never seen the show that inspired the author to write it, but I used to love watching So You Think You Can Dance? and also Dança Comigo which I think is the portuguese version of Strictly Come Dancing.

In Say It With Sequins: The Waltz, the show is called Who Dares Dances and the two contestants we follow are Lucy Everett, a famous childrens books author, and Max Parry, an olympic swimmer. Lucy doesn't really have a problem with her dancing, but the live shows are complicated for her because she is still recovering from the agorafobia that has kept her stuck at home for years. For Max the most complicated thing is the dancing, because he feels more comfortable in the water than on solid ground.

They are two misfits, each with their own problems, that get closer together thanks to Lucy’s partner, Daniel, who is a matchmaker at heart... Max is very attracted to Lucy and she for him, but the problem is that Lucy thinks that Max is gay and Daniel too, and confuses the friendship between the two man with something more. Max can’t understand why Lucy sometimes seems to also be interested in him but acts like they’re only friends, however he respects her and never, ever tries to force things. A male character that goes straight to the favorites list!

The romance is so sweet and it was a pleasure to read a story where none of the protagonists is perfect, they both have problems and struggles, but accept and respect each other and, together, try to overcome them. I'm definitely going to read the other two novellas of the series and I hope the author will give Daniel a happy ending because he deserves it.
