Free to Dance

A small-town adjacent, curvy-girl, age-gap, broody-hero romance packed with dance-floor chemistry, big-city heat, and emotional depth.

A curvy finance genius.
A broody, older club owner.
One dance that changes everything.

Marco Houde built Redemption into Manhattan’s most exclusive nightclub.Behind the velvet rope and pounding bass, he keeps his world locked down tight—no attachments, no exceptions.

Until she walks in.

Lynne Bradbury is brilliant, curvy, unapologetic and determined to give her best friend the bachelorette party she deserves. With the wild Freeman clan in tow, she ends up in the VIP section… and directly in the path of the brooding owner whose stare feels like a spark about to catch.

She calls him out for treating her differently than everyone else.
He doesn’t deny it.
He can’t.

Because when Lynne steps onto his dance floor, Marco’s carefully controlled world tilts. Still, when he pulls her into his arms, the chemistry hits like fireworks.

One dance. One touch. Suddenly nothing between them feels casual, safe, or simple.

What starts as heat becomes something deeper—something neither of them expected and both of them feel in their bones. Because a single dance can shift everything if you’re brave enough to follow where it leads.
