MacKenzie Palumbo grew up in Ohio with dreams of becoming a ballerina. Dean Bennett itched to get out of Toronto and the shadow of his charismatic twin brother to shine as a comedy writer. Though they would not meet until their forties, their unique creative and romantic journeys were destined to cross paths.
Pas De Deux follows the parallel lives of MacKenzie, a professional ballet dancer, and Dean, a successful TV writer, through their early years, professional careers, marriages, divorces, and eventual "meet cute" in their forties, leading them to a mid-life "second act" with each other. But when an unexpected twist in MacKenzie's past throws her entire dance career into question, the men in her life join together to solve the puzzle of the mysterious ballet fan that spins a tale of international espionage and political suspense. Both a love story and a spy story, Pas De Deux will capture your imagination and your heart. A sensual tale of midlife romance and foreign intrigue from the Emmy-nominated author of Super Vows and Things We Shouldn't Do.
