Download The Winner Book in PDF, ePub and Kindle
The most prestigious ballroom dance competition in the United States. Two dancers need to win. Only one can. Nina Fortunova wasn't supposed to end up almost thirty, divorced, with her dreams of winning shattered. She teams up with Jorge Gonzalez, a hunky and hard-working Latin dancer, to reinvent the flashy Smooth style. When the Chairman of the Judges offers to throw the competition in their favor, Nina must decide how far she will go to win, even if it means losing Jorge. Carly Martindale is doing everything she's been taught not to do—placing her happiness first by dancing with Trey Devereux, the former three-time champion who's returned to competition for mysterious reasons. She falls deeply in love with Trey, but beneath his movie-star looks and Southern manners lays a tortured soul. To heal Trey, Carly must push herself beyond her limits—even if she loses herself in the process. Co-workers, then friends, and now arch competitors, Nina and Carly face off to determine who will be the winner—on and off the dance floor. Bright, emotive, and told through dual narrators, The Winner examines the costs associated with winning, the internalization of parental ambition, and the effect of gendered roles on personal and professional relationships. The Winner is a literary romance that's perfect for readers who love Dancing with the Stars, Strictly Come Dancing, So You Think You Can Dance, and the classic elegance of Fred Astaire and Ginger Rogers. Start reading TODAY the novel that readers call "beautifully written," "a great read," fantastic," "a roller coaster," and "a true winner."
