Ed Maurerβs life would be fine if he could just get Laurie Parker off his back. Heβs bounced back, more or less, from the neck injury that permanently benched his semi-pro football career, and he volunteers now at a local community center. Itβs just that every time he turns around, that damn professional dancer is in his way, hating Ed right back. But when a bargain Ed strikes at the center lands him as an assistant in Laurieβs ballroom dancing class, their perceptions of each other turn upside down. Both Ed and Laurie have heartbreak in their pasts, but somehow dancing together eases their individual pain. For Ed, dancing with Laurie becomes a way to reconnect with his body after losing football. For Laurie, partnering with Ed has erased some of his fear of performing and brought back joy to a sport he wasnβt sure he could ever truly love again.
As Laurie and Ed lose themselves in dance, their lives continue to spin around them: Edβs injury makes it clear heβs nowhere near recovery, Laurie feels the pressure by friends and family to perform once more, and the community center that has become such an important part of both their worlds threatens to close. Alone, they havenβt had the strength or spirit to face what life has hurled at them. But as the turns of their personal paths lead them into the arms of love, Ed and Laurie begin to think that if they dance this dance together, they might be able to succeed.
