This was the best one in the series!

I loved the suspense elements and was kept guessing the entire time. This was a wonderful second chance romance following a ONS that I was immediately enraptured by.

I am thrilled that the author is continuing the With Me in Seattle series. When I started reading more romance instead of simply paranormal, Kristen Proby quickly became a favorite. I enjoy how I can identify with many of the characters, and how the stories are believable, possible.

Levi has been popping in and out of the stories but never had a chance to find his true love. He worked with a Montgomery so it only seemed natural that he would get a book. YAY!!! He finally has his own journey in Dance with Me. A one night stand leaves him wanting so much more of Starla, pop star. When he discovers she is renting across the street from his brother he pounds pavement and a door to get back into her life.

Starla needs a break for the stage. She is drained emotionally and physically. The only place she wants to go is Seattle, close to those she loves, close to the memory of a wonderful night.

When Levi discovers that Starla is in danger there is nothing stopping him from going alpha male. It won't be easy. There are times I thought it was one person, and the holy confusing suspects, another would show up. This book was packed with suspense and romance making it a joy to read.

Dance With Me is the newest installment of Kristen Proby’s With Me in Seattle series and OH MY GOODNESS is it a good one! The sexy scenes just jump off the page from the beginning and don’t stop till the end! Starla, she’s just Starla a super, mega, pop star who is still trying to overcome the loss of her fiance 5 years ago. When Starla is forced to take a vacation she decides to spend her time in Seattle with her “family” Jax and Meredith. Starla quickly finds herself back in the presence of Levi Crawford, a man she spent a super sexy night with several months earlier. Levi Crawford is the super sexy Seattle cop who falls head over heels from the moment he meets her. When he is ghosted by Starla he finds himself very emotionally drained. Levi’s heart truly knows Starla is the one for him. As they reconnect both Levi and Starla realize that they must face professional challenges in order to have their HEA. Will they do it? Gotta read it to find out. Most every couple from the the previous With Me and Big Sky books make an appearance in some form. So wonderful to see where they all are in their lives. Luke and Nat are there the most because Starla is living in Nat’s house and Starla is a superstar like Luke and can relate to the challenges before her. It’s not a With Me book without a famous GNO!! If you love big family saga series and super sexy ALPHA males who love and protect their women, then you will love Dance With Me by Krisen Proby. I received an ARC in exchange for a honest review. 5*****

Levi and Starla's story was so different and I really enjoyed it. I loved the suspense part of the story - so different from the rest of the series. Levi was a great hero - he knew he wanted Starla and was not afraid to let her know. I liked Starla a lot and felt for her and the guilt she was holding onto. The twist in the story surprised me - I couldn't believe I didn't guess it. This was another fantastic addition to the With Me in Seattle series.

After reading the previous eleven books in this series, it's safe to say that you become invested in this boisterous, loving, and inclusive family. And with each additional book, you fall more and more in love with past characters, care about all of the new characters, and appreciate the shenanigans they get into. Dance With Me brought me back to Seattle!

Starla. She's been on top of the world for years. Levi meets her, and the chemistry is instant, but after one night together, they go their separate ways. But stress brings Starla back to Seattle so that she can regroup since she has worked herself to the bone since her fiance died five years prior. Levi didn't like the way things left off before, and wants to see if things can move forward for him and Starla.

I loved how down-to-Earth Starla was when she visited the gang in previous books, and we got to really get to know her in Dance With Me. And Levi is hot- and sexy, and strong, and supportive. And I think that that word is what I find most distinctive with Kristen Proby's books: she writes strong, independent women and men that complement them, and don't want to stifle their strength.

Dance With Me is a wonderful addition to the With Me In Seattle series! I loved getting to revisit the old group, get to know the newer characters, and just hang out with family.

**Update** I have also listened to the audio of Dance With Me. Lee Samuels and Kirsten Leigh did a great job bringing Levi and Starla to life, although Kirsten Lee's male voice kind of annoyed me at first.

Dance With Me was a fast paced, sweet, engaging and enjoyable read. And I did like the characters Levi and Starla. But honestly, this story didn't excite me as much as some of the earlier ones have.
