Description
After their no-strings fling in paradise, Lyric and Devon never thought they’d see each other again. Until they did. Now they have very different ideas about what the future holds…Sometimes you just have to take the leap…What happens in Aruba, stays in Aruba… That’s what former ballerina Lyric Taylor keeps telling herself, at least. After all, now that the curtain has closed on her ballet career, and with the search for her biological parents stalling, she could use a little distraction. So when a lodging mix-up leads to an unexpected fling in paradise with her sexy bunkmate, Devon, Lyric takes the plunge. Seven days of sun, sand and plenty of sizzle—and when it’s time to go home, their no-strings sitch will come to an end… Right? Single dad Devon Masters spent the last eight years shielding his daughter, Kianna, from life’s disappointments—and he’s gotten pretty good at cutting pain off at the pass. But nothing can prepare him for this latest bombshell: discovering Lyric Taylor is Kianna’s new dance teacher. What happened in Aruba seems to have followed them home, but they’ll have to keep it under wraps for as long as they can. Soon, however, new feelings take hold and old wounds resurface. Will they finally find the rhythm they need to redefine what belonging truly means?

After an injury ends her prima ballerina career, opening a dance studio becomes Lyric Taylor's new dream. The months of planning have been hectic, though, so she's grateful when her five best friends gift her a trip to Aruba to relax before her grand opening. When a lodging double-booking leads to an exciting no-strings fling with a stranger, she returns to Memphis ready to take on her new career. Sure, it was a week like no other, but what happens on vacation stays on vacation. Devon Masters didn't expect to find a beautiful bunkmate at the beach, but maybe time spent with Lyric was just what he needed to get himself back on track. When the sexy stranger ends up being his daughter's new dance teacher, the single father isn't prepared for the feelings she still stirs in him. He's already had one disastrous relationship with a dancer and isn't sure giving Lyric a chance is worth the risk to his heart. VERDICT This fifth installment in St. John's "Six Gems" series, after Frenemy Fix-Up, is best for readers who are already invested in the women and their HEAs.—Rebecca Moe
