The Ballroom Girls: Christmas Dreams by Jenny Holmes

The Ballroom Girls: Christmas Dreams by Jenny Holmes

As war rages on, can they keep dancing?

Blackpool, November 1942

Wartime worries fail to dampen the glitz and glamour of the ballroom in the run-up to Christmas. After all, life is for living.

Newlywed Pearl's bliss is cut short when her beloved Bernie is called up into the Army. Will dancing at the Tower Ballroom take the edge off her heartache or will it throw temptation her way?

Unexpected news of an inheritance presents Joy with a different dilemma. Should she move to Scotland in line with her parents' final wishes or stay in Blackpool to dance with Tommy, the man she loves?

Meanwhile, ambitious Sylvia ditches Eddie, her loyal dance partner and launches into a new career teaching jive and jitterbug. Regrets soon set in, however. Is this the worst mistake she's ever made?

Change is in the air. Can our Ballroom Girls fulfil their dreams and make this a Christmas to remember?

Jenny Holmes lives in Ilkley, the gateway to the beautiful Yorkshire Dales, and sets her sagas in her beloved home county and in neighbouring Lancashire. She enjoys playing tennis, being around horses and walking her dog by the river. She also writes children's books as Jenny Oldfield.
