Slow Dancing in a Black Storm

Written by Tana Jenkins

Narrated by Ricki Franklin

Mila has spent weeks preparing for her first eminent domain hearing. The one thing she doesn’t anticipate is the public opposition. She gets her first taste in court, when the judge repeatedly silences her, leaving her in a state of humiliation as she storms out of the courtroom — right into the incredibly sexy Sergio Gomez.

Sergio is one of the many people on the island of St. Croix opposed to the case that could make or break Mila's career… and also, as Mila finds out, a sensitive soul who keeps his family's restaurant afloat with the fish he catches with his rooster friend, takes care of the house owned by his aunt where Mila is staying, plays music and dances with a grace and passion Mila has never known, and rescues her during a terrifying storm. Oh, turns out he also has a reputation as a playboy.

Will these uneasy neighbors overcome their differences to become more than friends and adversaries? Or will jealousy, betrayal, and conflicts of interest tear them apart?
