A Season to Dance by Patricia Beal (Blog Tour w/ Review & Giveaway)

Welcome to A Season to Dance Blog Tour

About the Book
Title:  A Season to Dance
Author: Patricia Beal
Publisher:  Bling! Romance
Release Date:  May 9, 2017
Genre: Inspirational Contemporary Fiction
Ballerina Ana Brassfield has her path to the stage of the Met in New York and her future with fiancé Peter Engberg all figured out—until her first love, renowned German dancer Claus Gert, shows up in Georgia to dance with her and win her back. Claus kisses her after a rehearsal, a kiss Peter witnesses from the darkened audience. Convinced a kiss between Claus and Ana is more than a one-time mistake, Peter breaks off his engagement with Ana. Rejected by Peter, and knowing Claus is dancing at the Met soon, Ana decides to repave her path to her dream. With her 2002 Thunderbird and Baryshnikov, an old dog crippled by arthritis, she moves to Germany to be with Claus. But the ghost of his late wife, Ana’s own memories of Peter, and the pressure of earning a spot in a large ballet company prove to be a high price for a shot at success.

In My Opinion (Review)

With the grace and fluidity associated with dancers, Patricia Beal takes readers behind the scenes and onto the stage in A Season to Dance, allows us to step into a ballerina’s pointe shoes.

Heartbreak caused Ana Brassfield to shift her life and career goals to something more manageable, something obtainable. When a man from her past returns intent on winning her back, her world is once again turned upside down.

Ana’s actions and decisions aren’t always the wisest, but she is determined to make the most of them. She is also searching for something but the idea of not giving one hundred percent of herself to obtain something as obscure as grace goes against everything she knows.

This poignant story is the journey Ana takes to finding her worth. Not in dance or in romantic relationships but in the One who wants to give her more than she can imagine. Ana faces heartache, disappointments, and tragedy throughout this book, but in the end, the God who longs for her, holds her close.

Oh, and in case you’re wondering, I’m #teampeter!
