A between-jobs vacation was all Angelo expected from Buenos Aires. When it turned into a holiday fling, he wasn’t about to say no.
Ramon’s impulsive trip to Argentina started off as a disaster. The cute dance teacher offering a room share? An early Christmas present. The night dancing tango? A revelation.
The next week turns into a series of great dates, the kind that would take months to set up in real life. By day two, they both wish they’d met long ago, in California, where they both grew up. But while Ramon’s heading back there, Angie’s bound for North Carolina.
Angie leaves Argentina with a head full of plans and wishes, but no regrets. Ramon goes home with a plan of his own, determined to turn some wishes into reality. On New Year’s Day, Angie finds Ramon on his doorstep. Will they find a way to dance into the future together?
Alexandra Y. Caluen lives in a purple house with her husband, a bottle of Laphroaig, a lot of books, and nine pairs of ballroom shoes. She works in patent law and has enough hair for three people.
Overall, I liked this a lot! I admit it was rather rambly, especially in the second half. The characters perhaps wanted to prove that even tho their relationship happened at lightning speed, they had a plan. The first half was really wonderful (I love a vacation romance) and the second half was sort of the working it out portion, where I could have used a little less detail, but it never went on so long that I was mad at it. The details included seemed very plausible and realistic (possibly apart from the timeline, but I understood the urgency.) I'll try more from the author and see what I think!
(I marked this as wedding called off, but it's really a forestalled engagement. But the vibes are the same.)
