Twenty-eight-year-old Claire Chatfield has everything a girl could possibly wish for: looks, a promising career at New York\u2019s top architectural firm, and an engagement ring from one of New York\u2019s most eligible heir-bachelors! Life should be a dream, but when Alec Brunell, a sexy tango dancer, moves into the apartment one floor above from Claire\u2019s, he unwittingly awakens Claire\u2019s old insecurities, making her question her life choices. Will Claire brave her fears and allow herself to take a chance on Alec, or will she continue to play it safe?<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
In order to secure his place as his father\u2019s successor, thirty-three-year-old David Lawson must settle down with a wife befitting the future head of Lawson Enterprises – and who could fit the prerequisite better than the stunningly beautiful and incredibly bright Claire Chatfield? There is just one glitch \u2013 David Lawson is in love with another woman \u2013 a Hollywood Legend Claudia Block.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
A successful tango instructor, Alec Brunell has never lacked for women\u2019s attention, but he finds himself at a loss when faced with his downstairs neighbor, Claire Chatfield. Upon hearing of his occupation, most women swoon with desire, but Claire runs for the door. Still, her iciness only adds fuel to his fire, as Alec is determined to change Claire\u2019s view of him.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Claudia Block has been basking in the limelight of Hollywood for more years than she cares to admit. While she still has her looks, she would much rather not mention her age, which makes her unconventional affair with young and handsome David Lawson that much more difficult for her to give up.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Dance Me to the Stars is a love story about finding one\u2019s perfect match – sometimes following one\u2019s heart is as convoluted as learning the steps of tango.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Dance Me to the Stars,<\/span><\/em> has been selected in the first round of entries in the General Fiction category in the Amazon Breakthrough Novel contest this year.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n
Excerpt #8<\/strong><\/div>\n

Claire smiled and lifted the glass to her lips \u2013 she loved it when David called her his girl
\n\u2013 there was something so old-world about it. \u201cSo, how was your day?\u201d she asked him.
\n\u201cThere was only one good thing about it \u2013 looking forward to seeing you.\u201d David
\nsqueezed her hand and Claire thought she was going to literally melt under his gaze. He had had this effect on her ever since they met, and at times, she wondered if she would ever start taking David for granted – at the moment, it seemed impossible. \u201cAnd that\u2019s all I care to say about my day at the office on a Saturday.\u201d David grinned. \u201cHow was your day, baby?\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cI had the craziest morning.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cOh? What happened?\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cI got a new neighbor and he was playing his music really loud…\u201d The image of Alec\u2019s
\nbare torso materialized in Claire\u2019s mind as she remembered him moving to the sensual tango
\nmusic. Flustered, she halted into silence \u2013 here she was, sitting across the most desirable man in all of New York and most likely in the world, having ridiculous thoughts about her impertinent
\nneighbor.<\/p>\n

\u201cThere you are!\u201d Amber sidled into the seat next to David.<\/p>\n

For once, Claire was glad of Amber\u2019s interruption.<\/p>\n

\u201cAren\u2019t you two going to dance?\u201d<\/p>\n

As if on cue, a deafening blast of techno filled the room.<\/p>\n

Claire glanced at the empty dance floor and shook her head. \u201cOh, you know us, Amber –
\nDavid and I don\u2019t dance.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cThat\u2019s right.\u201d David nodded. \u201cI can think of far better things to do with my girl than
\ngrinding on the dance floor.\u201d<\/p>\n

Even David Lawson had an imperfection – it was his utter lack of rhythm and music
\ntiming \u2013 an idiosyncrasy that Claire found most endearing when she overheard David singing in the shower. David took care to stay off the dance floor, and Claire adored him all the more for it.<\/p>\n
