About the book: year / Sometimes life requires a partner. Ed Maurer was forced to end his career as a semi-professional football player after receiving a neck injury during a game. After a while he comes to his senses a little. Now his life is a hated office job, and the only thing that brings satisfaction is volunteering at the local community center. Everything would be fine if it weren’t for the constantly eyesore and incredibly annoying Laurie. Laurie Parker is a legend of world ballet. Once one of the most famous artists, and now a volunteer at the Community Center. He avoids any company, including the grandmaster combinations of his mother, who dreams of his return to the stage. This self-conscious recluse would seem ideal if not for the rude football player. One day during Laurie's ballroom dancing class, an emergency arises and Ed becomes his partner. Their initial dislike for each other is gradually turned upside down. Dancing leads to friendship, friendship to love. But most importantly, their partnership heals the pain of the past. With each new step, Ed and Laurie realize that the only way out is to keep dancing. Dance together.
