TWO-STEP by Stephanie Fournet

Romantic Comedy | Available Now

 

Book Blurb:

Iris Adams can’t dance.

She can act. She can hike the Appalachian Trail. She can resist every carb known to womankind. She can make people laugh. But she has no moves. Not even one. Her lack of rhythm has never been an issue until she gets the chance to take her TV show to the big screen. The movie is sure to make her a household name—if she can just nail the Cajun dance scene. Beau Landry is a minimalist. He doesn’t even own a TV. A South Louisiana native, Beau’s mission in life is to preserve his Cajun culture. The full-time French teacher and part-time dance instructor is only working with this Hollywood head case to help out his uncle. It’s not because she’s beautiful even when she’s embarrassing herself. It’s not because she’s as funny as she is kind. And it’s definitely not because she just might need him as much as he needs her.

EXCERPT FROM CHAPTER 12


“Let’s warm up,” he says.

I’m expecting the same breathing routine we’ve used every time, but instead of Bill Withers, Gnarls Barkley's “Crazy” fills the room. I almost choke on a laugh. Beau turns to face the three of us. “Follow my lead.”

The beat is faster, more in-your-face than our other warm-ups, and I watch Beau keep time with it just by using his hips. Ramon and Sally imitate him, but I stand still. No way am I going to shake my hips. I’ll do it wrong and look like an idiot.

“C’mon, Iris,” he prompts.

I shake my head. “No thanks.”

“We’re just warming up,” Beau says, stepping in front of me, shaking those sexy-as-sin hips. “No big deal.”

No big deal? Who is he kidding? Has he seen himself?

He’s just standing there, barely moving to the rhythm, but all the movement, all the rhythm makes it impossible to look away. He’s the sexiest damn thing on two legs, and I am beyond intimidated. Frozen solid.

That is, until Beau settles his hands on my hips. “Just let go, Iris.”

It’s not that simple. It can’t be that simple.

He looks down at me, his dark eyes soft and patient. I look away, over at my friends, who are hip-shaking like pros. For about two seconds, I let myself hate them.

Scowling, I look back at Beau. His mouth quirks. If he laughs at me, I’m going to knee him in the balls.

“Trust me, Iris.”

The invitation is low, intimate. My throat goes dry at his words, and I swallow. The last couple of weeks have brought down my guard. I’ve gotten comfortable with the routine, even if I’m still awkward and clumsy and mess up more than I get it right. But he’s made it easy even when I botch it. The temptation to trust him is just unfair. It’s almost as if someone is offering me a chance to learn how to fly like a bird. Thrilling. And equally impossible.
