Dance with Me by Georgia Beers

4.0

Georgia Beers does such a wonderful job writing this story from Scottie Templeton’s point of view. I was taken from the first chapter with how sweet, kind, and self deprecating Scottie is. Her divorced parents with their new families as well as her crappy ex really did a number on Scottie’s self esteem. Despite this, Scottie is hard working, compassionate, just really flippin’ nice.

When Scottie meets Marisa, whose connection to her is one of a kind, the two push past that oddness and with the help of Marisa’s nephew, Jaden form a tentative friendship. Scottie’s friends and grandma help to add depth to Scottie’s character and I love how this story also takes place in the fictional, Northwood, where we’ve met many other characters from Ms. Beers’s books. Scottie and Marisa’s journey, while not all sunshine and roses, is perfectly paced, charming, and delightful!

I received an ARC copy of this book in exchange for an honest review.
