#12daysofchristmas #9ladiesdancing You don‘t need 9 ladies dancing when Mia Wallace wants to win the trophy in the twist dance contest at Jackrabbit Slims.
#12DaysofChristmas #9LadiesDancing Darcy Scott is a talk show producer whose friend disappears helping with a show on dating using personal ads & Darcy gets on the radar of "the dancing shoe killer."?I don't think he got to 9 ladies-but the book came out in 1991 (+a cheesy TV movie in 2001). This is the second day in a row that I've picked mystery thrillers with serial killers for this challenge. Not sure what that says about my holiday spirit!?
If you are reading an @JuliaQuinn novel, at some point there is sure to be #9ladiesdancing. #12daysofchristmas.
"May I Have This Dance"
From the country dance to the formal balls, dancing was a key way for society to interact. The early dances were groups of couples. Then, the "fast" set in town popularized the waltz, which was much more intimate. The gentleman put his arm around the lady's waist! Gasp!
The introduction of the waltz to the country figured heavily in The Nonesuch by Georgette Heyer.
