“From you?” Bailey said, smiling up at him.
“Nah. I’m still a learner, but I’m happy to demonstrate a few moves with you, if that’s okay with the birthday girl.”
Her laughter rippled, his favorite sound. “One hundred percent.”
He wrapped his arm around her, looked down into those shining eyes. “You and me. We’re partners forever, right?”
She grinned. “They didn’t know what they were doing when they put us together to dance all those months ago.”
“But God did.”
She nodded. “God definitely did.”
And she leaned against him, offering her lips which he claimed in a kiss that sparkled light and hope and joy and a future shinier than any mirror ball.

A NOTE FROM THE AUTHOR
Thank you for reading Pointe, Shoots, and Scores, the third book in the Northwest Ice romance series. I have long enjoyed Dancing with the Stars-type shows, so it was super fun to imagine how a tough hockey player like Luc would act when placed in his worst nightmare! As someone who grew up doing ballet, I was excited to get back into it recently, and to imagine how someone like Bailey would adjust to a new dream when her original plan fell through.
Huge thanks to Brooke Charpentier, director of Infused Dance and Infused Fitness, whose experiences as an interstate and international ballet professional and running a dance studio helped to colour some parts of this story. www.infusedfitnessdance.com.au
