This Dance

by Jerusha Agen

 

ABOUT THE BOOK:

No love, no pain. No God, no games.

A tragedy three years ago destroyed Nye’s rise to the top of the dancing
world as an upcoming tango star, and in the process destroyed her reason
for living. She survived the pain and built a new life resembling nothing
like the one she left behind, determined never to hurt again.

Nye’s emotional walls hold up perfectly until she meets a handsome lawyer
and an elderly landowner. They seem harmless, but one awakens feelings she
doesn’t want and the other makes her face the God she can’t forgive. Will
these two men help Nye dance again?

Q&A WITH THE AUTHOR:

 

Q. What issues do your characters face that will speak to the heart
of your readers?

A. Where do I start? Nye’s story hits on a lot of pertinent issues
that I think most of us have to deal with in our lives. On the basic level,
there are the issues of grief and loss, as well as fear of experiencing
more loss in the future. While Nye likes to think she has control over her
life, she’s really being controlled by her repressed grief and fear of
being hurt again.

Then there’s the issue of joy. Nye has lost whatever enjoyment she once had
in life. Her fear of pain keeps her from seeking anything that might bring
her joy, while her sorrow prevents her from believing there could be
anything that would bring her happiness ever again.

I hope that readers who are struggling with a painful loss, who know the
fear of being hurt, or who have lost the sense of joy in their lives will
find hope in reading Nye’s story.

Q. What advice based upon scripture would you give a reader who is
dealing with the issues that are front and center in your current
release?

A. Remember that God is in control and that He’s a loving God, who
will work out ALL things for the good of those who love him (Romans 8:28).
You can try to control your life like Nye does and try to avoid things that
might cause you pain. It might seem to work for a while, but, sooner or
later, you’ll realize that you can’t control anything.

That might sound scary, but it isn’t when you know the God who is in
control, when you know that He’s good, that He loves you and has the wisdom
to see the big picture that you can’t see (Jeremiah 29:11). As much as
whatever you are going through may hurt right now, cling to the truth that
God is there and that, in the very end, everything, no matter how awful it
seems now, will be turned into victory (1 Corinthians 15:54).
