 “…on a scale of 1-10, we rate this book a 10+. We loved it.” “A sweepingly elegant romance, One Last Dance celebrates the importance of living in the moment and never giving up... Emotion and hope surge from the pages, in this novel that leaves the reader feeling invigorated and enthusiastic about life.” “His final deadline came too soon, but Mardo Williams made sure his novel had a happy ending. One Last Dance, a wry novel about late-in-life romance… includes conflict, mystery, and scandal. His newspaper-writing style is concise and leavened with humor.” “The Williamses introduce us to Morgan, a handsome curmudgeon, still running from his past, and Dixie, a lovely social butterfly, who is still grieving hers. Their disastrous meeting started with smeared cake frosting and developed into a moving tribute that love conquers all pain. Williams and his daughters have achieved a thing of beauty. Snuggle up in a chair and enjoy this magnificent hallmark of senior romance.” “Williams' writing shows a ready wit, and neither Dixie, 79, nor Morgan, 89, is spared from comic consequences. One Last Dance is charming and touching. That the main characters are willful and stubborn does little to diminish their appeal.” Awards
After a disastrous first meeting, Morgan, 89, moves in with Dixie, age 79, strictly a business arrangement, both maintain. When a "lost" grandson, bent on vengeance for past wrongs, invades their lives, fear and suspicion threaten to ruin their plans. He becomes a catalyst, eventually bringing the couple the love and pride they'd lost decades before with the loss of their children. Award-winning author Mardo Williams completed the first draft of One Last Dance at age 95. His daughters, honoring their father's wishes, finished the book after his death.
