Best friends Carmen and Beth both need an escape; Carmen from her abusive ex-boyfriend Lee and professional dancer Beth from her dance career that has fallen into a slump. When Beth sees an ad where a tv production company for screentests for a dance reality show, she applies.
Altough Beth is a dancing pro, the company is looking for someone who doesn't have any dance experience, so she goes into the disquise of a girl who can't dance. And before Beth and Carmen new it, they are in and on a tour to three amazing countries: Argentina, Spain and Cuba, to learn the countries national dances: Tango, Flamenco and Salsa. Ofcourse a few troubles arise, but no one big enough to stand in the way for the fun of learning the dances and to go sightseeing, and of course, a lot of romance is involved in the dancing, and also before and after the dancing romance is blooming..!
Living La Vida Loca is the perfect pick for this summer, especially if you love dancing. As always, Belinda Jones style of writing is light, funny and very romantic. Perfect describing of the Latin/Hispanic dance styles and music and atmosphere. So good, you almost will read this book dancing!
Sounds fun! Great review!
