Stimulating arousal, preventing exhaustion and increasing the production of testosterone hormone can reduce the chances of conception in male, similarly high amount of cialis for sale male hormones in female can do the same process with the other eye. With her marriage and dance studio wiped out by divorce, Becca Collins reluctantly agrees to teach Two Step lessons at a country bar. Carson Quill isn’t thrilled about spending his Saturday nights playing guitar in a local dive, but a certain dance instructor with long legs and dark curls caught his eye. Does love have a shot in a bar called Last Chance?
After being left by her business and life partner, Becca had been forced to pick up a receptionist job to help keep herself financially afloat. She’s hated closing her dance studio, but had quickly started to teach classes at Starlight Studios and hoped one day to go into business again, albeit this time with a different business partner. When a good friend offers Becca the chance to take over a month of two-step dance classes at his Western themed Saloon bar, Becca can’t resist.
I enjoyed this short story, finding it full of interesting characters and a lot of fun. Having read a number of the previous books set in this dance studio I found it very fun to revisit some of the previous matches and see how everyone was going. I was a little nervous that readers who might pick this story up cold might find that there are quite a few characters introduced in the beginning and it’s evident that their main connection is from previous books. The story progresses though and soon it’s all focused on Becca and Carson and the slow blossoming of their relationship. Which I found to be a very sweet and emotional read. Both Becca and Carson have been hurt and are divorced and watching them learn to love and trust again was really inspiring and sweet for me to read. I particularly loved the slower pace to their romance – there was no “they glanced across the room” and then jumped right into intimacy.
I also found it particularly interesting that the author spent a good amount of time showing the growth of the Saloon bar. Things like working out how to appeal to the younger crowd without alienating the older set, and how the multi-generations of family could both work together and still enjoy themselves and find aspects of the bar to enjoy. This whole story had a really “feel good” style of writing to it and I enjoyed how it spanned across a number of generations. And while the romance between Becca and Carson was central to the story, I was really impressed that it wasn’t the only part that was focused on, giving the book as a whole the feeling of more depth and substance.
With only a few short kisses and the single intimate scene with the door firmly closed, I feel this romance can be thoroughly enjoyed by readers of all ages. I enjoyed how the romance grew slowly between Becca and Carson and how it meshed so well with all the other working facets of the story. I feel this short story is a solid, emotional and interesting read that I really enjoyed. Recommended.
