Dance of Life

Dance of Life

Sammi Jo Crawford returns to her hometown in western North Carolina, divorced, disillusioned and determined to start a new life as a woman who will focus on her career as a dancer and dance instructor, a woman who will never again be subservient or subordinate her hopes and dreams to the wishes of others. <P> No sooner has she opened her dance studio when trouble descends: odd, possibly criminal, activities in the adjacent business, her studio lease is threatened, her grandfather's health deteriorates, and participation in a protest march results in her appearance before Judge Garroway, a spurned suitor. Not surprisingly, the old wounds that reopen, the new unexpected feelings that emerge, all threaten the emotionally uninvolved career woman Sammi Jo had planned to become. <P> Will her dance with destiny lead her on the right path or into the arms of danger?
