<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br><p>Funny, sexy, emotionally impactful, WATCHING MEN DANCE is a celebration of difference, a magical attraction, a collision of cultures, & an enduring love between two people from different cultures. </p><p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><em>She is a wanderer; he will not fly. </em></strong>She is a city girl; he prefers a bison ranch. She grew up in her father's Greek restaurant; he dances at powwows. Ava and Jesse travel life together in a turquoise pickup truck, feasting along the way. They settle, raise children, cheat, gamble, and fight with great gusto. When Ava leaves to travel around Greece like a female Odysseus, their bond is tested.</p><br></p><em>Watching Men Dance</em> is a feast for the senses, </strong> a celebration of cultural diversity, and a compelling read, at once both humorous and moving.
