Lord of the Dance

A Novella in the Acts of Valor Series

By: Rebecca Hartt

Narrated by: Craig A. Hart, Teralyn Davis

Nina Aydin will never marry again. An abusive marriage years earlier left the ballet instructor leery of men, yet she desperately wants a baby. Only one man has caught her eye: the mesmerizing master chief of SEAL Team Six. From his dance moves to his dimples, Santiago Rivera would make the perfect father, as long as he agreed to play by Nina's rules - a donation at a fertility clinic with no intimacy allowed. More than anything, Santiago wants the captivating Nina in his life - his whole life! His faith demands love and marriage come before a baby. When he gets a clear message from God to take the traditional path, he risks losing Nina entirely.

With her baby dreams held hostage by Santiago's beliefs, Nina fears she has waited too long and pinned her hopes on the wrong man. As the ugly past returns bringing chaos, Santiago hopes Nina will realize how the light shines most brightly in the darkness. But will Nina seek it in time to claim the family God intends for her?

A Sweet Romance

This was my first experience with Rebecca Hartt's work and it was charming. Rebecca has written a story about a woman named Nina, who was abused by her husband. After getting a divorce, Nina decided that she wanted a baby and she decided to use an alternative route to become pregnant. The man that Nina chose to be the father agreed, but then later changed his mind and decided that he wanted to go the more traditional route. I enjoyed the story. I am interested in more of the books in the series. I liked the dual narrator system used for this story: Craig A Hart and Teralyn Davis. They added a layer of entertainment to the story. I was given a free copy of the audiobook and I have voluntarily left this review.

dreams fulfilled

Loved the voices of the narrators - awesome job. Great storyline that kept me listening. Conflict, suspense, drama, romance and eventually a happy ending. I loved the ending - one of the sweetest I have ever heard. This is my first book in this series and it makes me want to listen or read more of them.

Outstanding story with outstanding narration

Lord of the Dance: A Novella in the Acts of Valor Series, my third outstanding read from author Rebecca Hartt, an author I first heard of in an email from another author. I received a free Audible copy and I'm voluntarily leaving a review. As good or better than her first two books with characters from that book playing an integral part in this book you can’t help but want to read the next book in the series as well, fans of Dee Henderson Marliss Melton, and Colleen Coble, will enjoy this book as well. Author Craig A. Hart & Teralyn Davis do an outstanding job of narration bringing the characters to life. I'll be reading more from this author and in this series just as soon as I get them!
