The Steps Between Us: Dangerous Secrets Dance in Ballroom Shadows (Swirl, Book 1) (Unabridged‪)‬

Dirty Dancing meets Big Little Lies in this twisty, high-heeled thriller where the stakes are deadly and the cha-cha is to die for.


All Ava Thompson wanted was a little sparkle to break up the monotony of midlife. Maybe a sexy waltz or two. What she didn’t expect when she started dance lessons? A missing husband, a dead dancer, and a tango with danger.


It all starts at DanceFreak Studio, where the mirror ball gleams, the pros are charming, and the secrets come shrouded in sequins. Ava’s paired with Nandi—a handsome Hungarian ballroom instructor 20 years her junior. She’s giddy with learning dance – and basking in Nandi’s attention. Then things get weird.


A shredded photo.

A burner phone.

A bloodied hoodie.

And poof—Jack, Ava’s husband, disappears into thin air.


Suddenly, Ava's not just dancing for fun—she's dancing for answers. And in a ballroom full of secrets, one wrong step could be her last.
