On the Dime: She didn't ask permission. She just did.

By Dannah Lynn

In 1934 Nashville, Lily Fontana has traded the glitter of taxi dance halls for the sterile halls of medicine. After clawing her way through Vanderbilt with nothing but grit and an aunt's well-placed donation, Lily's new life as a doctor is just beginning. But when a desperate man arrives at her clinic with a plea to help find his runaway sister, Lily can't ignore the pull of unfinished business.

Marshall Landry is used to ranch life, not the seedy world his sister vanished into. With time slipping away and their father on his deathbed, Marshall turns to Lily-once a dancer herself-to guide him through the shadows.

From train rides to dive bars, and whispered secrets to violent reckonings, their journey is soaked in sweat, smoke, and sorrow. Each dance hall holds another dead end-until they finally find Norah. But it's too late to save her.

And that's when Lily makes a choice: she won't let the past repeat itself. Not again.

Dark, emotional, and brimming with Southern grit, On the Dime is a story of trauma, love, and the quiet fury of a woman who refuses to stay silent.
