Wounded Dance by Deanna Roy

When Denham Young rocks up back in town, Livia can't believe it. Fifteen year old her had gotten pregnant by him when he lived with her family and was supposedly her half brother. She had to give up her young daughter as her parents shunned her into a quiet life, until Blitz Craven danced into her world and heart as in the previous first book, Forbidden Dance.

As this book is the second in the lovers dance series of standalones, I am beyond excited for this journey to play out.

It didn't disappoint and took me just over an hour and a half to finish!

Denham Young doesn't give up in practically stalking Livia and waits outside her dance studio in his truck getting evermore persistent to wanting access to his daughter even when he finds out she was adopted. We learn how Livia and him got caught up in teenage lust and passion and got carried away until Denham was sent away and his life revolved around jail sentences since. Continuing to insist he's a changed man, eventually Blitz and Livia have had enough, a restraining order hasn't deterred his persistence and so they bail him out of jail and offer to make contact with their daughter despite Livia already knowing her, just not as a mother. However, Denham shows careless and tactless he truly can be and Livia finds herself stunned at his reaction.

You in won't forget this ending in a hurry!

Deanna has done another smashing job with this book, I truly love this set so far and the passion between Blitz and Livia as well as their nature's fit so well I feel compelled and addicted to read all of these books as they're just so well written and detailed I really appreciate the author allowing me this arc copy to review and will rave about these books and the author till everyone I know reads them!

Forbidden Dance by Deanna Roy

Livia and Benjamin have an instant connection.

Livia grew up shadowed by her father, being homeschooled and begging to dance ballet, now she's a teacher of ballet at Dreamcatcher dance school teaching young disabled children.
We also get a shock early on I won't spoil but at nineteen she has a lot of responsibility. Her best friend is Mindy, who is sixteen and an approved friend by her parents.

Blitz Craven was host of dance reality show, Dance Blitz. It had very racy performances and was alike TV show the bachelor. He's twenty six to Livia's nineteen and right from when they meet, there's heavy chemistry between them.

Livia and Blitz meet up a lot in the store room at the dance studio, a dark room they can hide away in together. Please be aware that this book does contain mature content and therefore read only if you're older than eighteen as it is a new adult fiction not young adult fiction.

I personally love the story of her being from a conservative family but we see she grows more daring throughout the book, showing that love wins over all obstacles despite Blitz returning to LA, he comes back to her and all I can say is I'm so hooked.

This book is part of a series and yes, I've added it to my kindle to buy wish list!

Thanks to the publishers for allowing me to review the first book in what is set to be a daring, adventurous series.
