Dance with joy as you read this book!

Nora Roberts is a romance writer who has the unique gift of being able to put her readers right between the pages of her books. In the case of Dance to the Piper, the reader feels as though they too are a dancer as a new show is about to open on Broadway. And as always with this author there is double the reading pleasure as there is also a delightful romance too.In the second book of the saga about the O'Hurley family, Ms. Roberts tells the story of the dancing O'Hurley daughter, Maddy. Preparing for a new show, Take It Off, this spirited young woman knows she cannot rest on accolades from her ;ast performances. She fully realizes that it will take both physical and mental strength to make a hit of this show and falling in love at this time is what she least expects to do. But fall in love she does as she meets and then pursues a principal investor of the show, Reed Valentine.I thought this book was a wonderful read. So adeptly does Ms. Roberts present the life of a Broadway dancer and star that I often wondered if she patterned this character after a real dancer she knows. I actually could see the dance numbers and feel the energy, to say nothing about how enjoyable was the romantic aspect. And as an extra benefit of this book the reader is introduced to Reed's charming father and spends more time with the other members of the O'Hurley family. I always think Nora Roberts's series books are her best and Dance to the Piper is another one of these which I highly recommend.

My favorite Nora Roberts book

I loved this book. I've been reading Nora Roberts for a very short time but I've read over twenty of her novels thus far and this is the only one I've yet to get tired of (I read her books three or four times through, easily). I love the books that involve mystery and intrigue but, on the other hand, I gravitated toward this one because it was simply a woman and a man struggling to find happiness. I adored the Broadway setting and could easily picture myself there, I loved the contrast between Maddy and Reed and the realistic struggles within their relationship but, most of all, I loved the language Ms. Roberts used to weave the tale.

My husband felt neglected because I couldn't put it down.

I loved this book and the others about this family. I've never been much of a reader and Nora Roberts has changed that for me. If you are looking for a book to while away the hours this will do the job. I almost felt silly because at times you felt like crying when the characters cry. Isn't that what a book is susposed to do, take you into the lives of it's characters? Good job Nora - keep-um coming.

A great book to read!

I found that I sat down with the book once, and I didn't want to put it down. I've read it 3 times so far, and I know I will read it many more. If you want a book that has a great storyline and characters, this is the book to read. Also, if you want to read about the rest of Maddy's family, (sisters and brother) you should read Without a Trace, The Last Honest Woman, and Skin Deep.

Good, solid love story

This is one of the best of Nora's. It's a love story featuring Maddy O'Hurley, a talented Broadway actress, and Reed Valentine, high-powered executive, whose company is backing the musical Maddy is starring in. The attraction between them is immediate and strong, but there are risks. Reed's past throws shadows over any possibilities of happiness for them. The plot is well-crafted with realistic contemporary characters. You won't want to put it down. I didn't
