Looking for a quick (91 pages), entertaining, summer-time read? Look no further than Swing Time III Blame it on the Boogie, now available through Amazon.
The Swing Time series follows two dance instructors, Chance Bryant and Faith Eisen, a couple who have some rather peculiar experiences with Time. They are not time travelers; rather Time happens to them. In this case, the recently retired Emily Wilder seeks out Chance to begin hustle lessons. This is the only dance she desires to learn, as she seeks to reconnect with her youth. Emily’s problem, however, is that she is already so tightly connected to her past that she can’t quite appreciate the present. For whatever reason–certainly Chance and Faith have never discovered why–the Universe has selected them to help Emily learn what to let go and what to savor. It would appear that some people are just “saved” through dance.
Swing Time III Blame it on the Boogie is available for your Kindle ($0.99) and in paperback ($5.00). If you do plan to read it at the beach, I recommend the paperback, which will not fail to function should you splash it with sea water, fill it with sand, or drip sunscreen on it. I can’t say the same for the Kindle version, ALTHOUGH, the Kindle version contains links to every song mentioned in the story. Come to think of it, I’d get both. In fact, if you haven’t read the first two novelas in the series, A Swing Dancing, Time Warping Story and Stardust in the Shenandoah, I’d buy them, as well. If it’s sunny and you get to spend a great deal of time on the beach, you’ll need plenty to read. If it rains and you’re stuck inside, you’ll need plenty to read. And each Kindle is linked to the songs mentioned, so you’ll have a soundtrack of the Time that happens to Chance and Faith.
