Dancing on a Moonbeam part two is the next installment of Eleanor Westwood’s story by Kate Perry. Eleanor’s plans to open her dance studio have had a few more setbacks. This time is has nothing to do with her sexy neighbor Max.

Eleanor and Max’s love/hate relationship is now less hate and more love!! They have found common ground and things are definitely developing and heating up between these two. They share some great moments together sweet, funny (Tutu) and serious.

I love part two just as much as part one another short easy endearing read. Eleanor is great it doesn’t matter what obstacles are being thrown her way she is not giving up, and I admired that about her. Love Max and I adore his moment with Eleanor’s daughter.

Sadly, unlike after part one, I don’t have the next installment waiting for me on my Kindle. Therefore, I can’t wait for part three and see how it all ends for Eleanor and Max. Also, I need to see if I have correctly picked the two characters who I think could be perfect together and could have a story of their own.

If you read part one, you need to read part two. Again, another cover pretty!

P.s I can’t help thinking what song Max would pick if he saw me. ;-)

So Max and Eleanor take their muse/neighbour relationship to the next level and she actually inspires him to write a better score and a new composition. But new obstacles arise and soon Eleanor realizes she may need to give up her dreams once again. Loving the humor and especially the banter between Max and Lily. Looking forward to peeling back her layers and seeing what makes her tick.

In Dancing on a Moonbeam: Part 2, Kate Perry continues her sweet second chance romance. Eleanor and Max are both reeling from their kiss. Neither is looking for a relationship, but both of them wants more than just that kiss.

Eleanor and Max are also able to come up with a compromise so Eleanor can finish her studio. She volunteers to be his muse and finds herself finding her own groove with dancing. But nothing is ever that simple and Eleanor soon find another hiccup in the renovation of her dance studio.

The slow-burn romance of Dancing on a Moonbeam heats up in Part 2. It was just as sweet as Part 1, but with a lot more sizzle. I loved the way Eleanor and Max have figured out how to work together. It was also fun to see Eleanor figure out where she's lacked in friendships in the past and how much she wants to reclaim those friends. My favorite parts of the story, though; are the conversations between Max and Eleanor's daughter. His words to her got through to her in a way others couldn't. I loved that.

I'm truly loving this second chance romance series. It's different from the other novels I have read by Perry as the characters seem more mature, but it's just as beautifully written. It tells a story many readers will be able to identify with. I can't wait to find out how the story wraps up in Part 3!

I would caution readers that this is the second part of a three part novella series. I would not suggest skipping Part 1 before reading this. The story gradually builds throughout the three parts. Plus, Part 1 was so much fun to read!

I received an Arc from the author for an honest review.

Dancing on a Moonbeam is a 3 part book. This installment is Part 2 and it continues as if there was not a break. This is a second chance romance and Eleanor has a lot of hang ups from her previous marriage. Max & Eleanor are attempting to continue on as if the kiss didn't totally send them off course. They are trying to find a working relationship and ignore the sparks.

I am totally into this story. The characters are more mature and the plot has a different tone than Kate's other books. Kate manages to bring in the emotions of not just Eleanor & Max and their relationship but also, those of Kate's daughter and the way she is feeling lost. The relationship between the daughter and Max is really as important as his relationship with Eleanor. Unlike a lot of series I read, in this case, it really should not be read as a standalone. You would miss way too much of the back story if you skipped Part 1.

I can't wait for Part 3! Plus there are a couple of characters that I think will be getting a book of their own.

I am enjoying the Bedford Falls series so much. Kate Perry is a master at creating uniquely vivid characters, and these are no exception. Normally I connect most with her strong heroines, but for some reason I’m all about Amadeus, aka Max, this time. He has stolen my heart for many reasons, one being his relationship with Eleanor’s daughter, Lily. The banter between them is so fresh and real. I hope that we get to see her much more in future books.

Eleanor, simply by being, has helped Amadeus. Now it’s his turn to help her discover the woman she was destined, yet afraid, to be. I cannot wait to see her transformation and if they’ll get their HEA.

Yet another heartwarming, witty, engaging, revealing story of discovery and love–in all forms– that gives you that satisfying, feel-good all over tingle, like warm, gooey, just-out-of-the-oven chocolate chip cookies.

Loved it!!

SO much to love!!

This book is a continuation of Eleanor's story as she is working to get her life back on track after a bad marriage and a horrible divorce. She is trying to get her dance studio open, amid many roadblocks (thanks to a horrible ex-husband and even worse ex-MIL). She is also trying to navigate the feelings shared between her and Max.

Max really shines in this book, even more so than he did in Part 1. I absolutely LOVE Max! Yes, I do! His interactions with Eleanor's surly teenage daughter, Lily, are priceless, and his feelings and actions towards Eleanor are just totally swoon-worthy. (I'm thinking red tutu here.....)

I am SO looking forward to Part 3, to see how it all shakes out! Thank you, Kate, for another wonderful story!

Dancing on a Moonbeam part 2 is a great book. In part 1 you learned about the characters. In part 2 it gets more in depth with them, the chemistry between Max and Eleanor is heating up. Eleanor is going through a lot with family and ex family and she is turning more to Max. I loved reading it and can't wait for part 3 to come out to find out how everything works out. Then I will start over and read them all at once. I love all the Kate Perry books I've read.

I love this even more than part one! I love Eleanor and Max, their chemistry is off the charts. I loved seeing more of Eleanor's daughter Lily in this book. My favorite part had to be the end part (you'll know what I mean when you read it). It was a very enjoyable read and I feel like I'm peeking into someone's life not a book.

Max and Eleanor take their friendly relationship to the next level and she actually inspires him to re-create his music score and a new composition. Lots of new challenges than need to be dealt with. I enjoy Max and his comeback comments, short but to the point and his relationship with Lily. I can't wait for part 3!

Elle and max are still mixing it up, Max is becoming more committed with each passing moment Eleanor is still letting fear trap her in the past but i have a feeling that won't last long.
I love Lilly she is an awesome sassy teenager and i love Robbie he really is the bestest best friend ever.
