Aiight, I think I'm emotionally stable enough to write this review without turning it into a free therapy session (for me) or a she's-driving-me-to-drink-pls-shut-her-up-and-where's-the-fucking-vodka-when-you-need-it session (for you).

Funny. Steamy. Alluring. Exhilarating. Gutsy. Moving. Billowing
And still not enough adjectives to correctly describe the sizzling chemistry that sets the stage and the pages on fire!!
Stylo has written an enthralling love story set on soft crooning songs and panty melting erotic moves in the dance floor. I was so turned on reading them I wish I was Logan Cassidy-the tired popstar and oh-so-delicious as michele morrone, Woods Donahue.

Slow Dancing exceeds my expectations. The characters are very well thought of; the interaction between them is realistic, bold, sarcastic, and witty. Logan Cassidy is one character I truly enjoy reading. The story is exciting, angsty, and the passion between Logan and Woods are sexy. A very enjoyable book with a wholly satisfying ending. One of my best read from this author. ...more

The hero is pansexual. There are scenes of him making out with a guy but no explicit M/M sex scenes.
5 “I'll always dance with you” Stars
This is a slow, sweet, sexy, shimmy of a story. When you find the one, sometimes it’s complicated. It can be full of doubt and confusion but also filled with passion and a sense of calm. I really must say that I loved the story. I liked the slow burn and pace of the story. The author brought the dance world alive with this story. I felt as if I was dancing and touring with Logan Cassidy.

REVIEW: 4+ AMAZING STARS
"I want this more than I'm afraid of it."
I have always said I love when a book challenges me. Whether it's my thought process or my emotions, I want to read a book that makes me think about the consequences or the possibilities of what may be or what could have been. So when I originally saw the words that Stylo Fantôme put out about this book, I knew it was just the challenge I needed from her. She originally wrote:
“𝑺𝒍𝒐𝒘 𝒃𝒖𝒓𝒏, 𝒂𝒏𝒈𝒔𝒕, 𝒄𝒐𝒏𝒇𝒖𝒔𝒊𝒐𝒏, 𝒍𝒐𝒗𝒆, 𝒂𝒍𝒍 𝒕𝒉𝒆 𝒃𝒆𝒔𝒕 𝒔𝒕 ...more

Logan has been a dancer since she was a young girl, it has always been her passion. She quickly went from a professional back-up dancer to a famous pop star after one singing performance thrust her into the spotlight. Ever since then she has been told what she can and can’t be, feeling controlled by her manager and pushed into a direction she really doesn’t feel comfortable going in.
Woods has a similar background story to Logan, dancing has been all he has ever known and he is very talented. Whe ...more

ARC PROVIDED FOR AN HONEST REVIEW
This is my very first Queer book. When I started this book off I had no idea that Woods, the main guy is Queer. So when she was describing how hot he was while he was making out with another GUY, I was like okay cool all hot guys are gay, unfortunately. And then Wood’s kept on flirting with her and I was like hold up baby boy what is happening here, I don’t think this boy is gay, maybe Bi but definitely not into just dicks. And then I saw a review on Stylo’s In ...more

Dance is the secret language of the soul. Loving is the universal language that connects souls equally.
Slow Dancing is the story of Logan and Woods, told in third person. It’s intense, emotional, angsty, captivating and sensual. Two souls who shared the same passion for dancing and a delicious chemistry that will wrap you.

Dancing has always seems to me to be a version of foreplay.
Two bodies.
Inches apart.
Moving against one another.
Add some attraction between the two people and the sexual tension is intensified.
This story focuses on two people who think they just want the physical release. And discover their connection runs so much deeper.

Stylo Fantome has created a truly beautiful love story with Slow Dancing. A book that is very timely with the decisions many have made these days with respect to their very being. Logan Cassidy as the somewhat reluctant pop star and Woods Donahue as her main back-up dancer find an uneven rhythm as they explore more than just new moves on the dance floor. Theirs is a complicated kind of pairing with Logan wanting to remain discrete and Woods wanting to shout his affection for her to the world.

is here and it's different than a lot of the other books I've read by Stylo. I can't say that I connected to this one as much as I have with her other books. But Stylo definitely knows how to weave a story that'll absolutely suck you in.

This book has me at a loss on what to write in a review. Not only has it left me inarticulate, but the words I might use will have the review bots all over this, so I’m doubly hamstrung. If you’ve read this author before, you know to expect the unexpected, and this is certainly unexpected. I suspect there will be critics on both sides, so I applaud Fantome for pushing herself and taking a chance on something different.

The synopsis gives the bare bones about this book so when I read it the actual story came as a surprise. This has a different feel to the authors previous books and it took me quite a while to get into the flow of the writing and get a feel for the characters. I will tell you the story is relevant interesting thought provoking as well as passionate and emotional. I liked how the story mixed the dance and music world to show a different part of the entertainment world. Logan is a character who go

Not my favorite by Stylo
I have to admit that I will automatically download any books I see by this author, but this wasn’t my favorite. While I fell in love with her writing because it was angsty and different, this book and the one before it have let me down. It’s becoming the same, mushy, fake conflict as other romance novels. The issue of labeling sexuality was definitely refreshing. But it didn’t make up for the fact that Logan was weak and Woods was charismatic but immature and selfish. I’d ...more

Crazy woman from a remote location in Alaska (where the need for a creative mind is a necessity!), I have been writing since ... forever? Yeah, that sounds about right. I have been told that I remind people of Lucille Ball - I also see shades of Jennifer Saunders, and Denis Leary. So basically, I laugh a lot, I'm clumsy a lot, and I say the F-word A LOT.
