Review:
"Move Your Body: Carnivale Chronicles" by Stephanie Nicole Norris

My Speculation:

Another sweet romance 'Move Your Body' that featured Tatiana Anderson and Messiah West with there music and dancing, producing some hot moves. I loved how they met the second time, which was oh so sweet. I especially liked it when they danced together as one being able to feel their chemistry between them. All that was left was for them to fall in love.

MOVE YOUR BODY captures the spirit of Carnivale through the art of dance. Messiah West and Tatiana Anderson take the reader on a love journey that sizzles with flirtatious repartee and sensuous dance moves. Their chemistry is quite palpable. Chicago is the setting for this powerful novella, and the Chi-Flavor Afro-Caribbean Carnivale serves as a backdrop.

One of the story’s select scenes occurs during Messiah and Tatiana’s outing at a gun range. Who knew clay pigeon shooting practice could be so sexy. You’ll get that when you read the story. Hopefully, this will not be the last time we read about this couple.

MOVE YOUR BODY is a worthy addition to the Carnivale Chronicles series. The line-up of talented authors assures great reads. While I recommend MOVE YOUR BODY for your reading pleasure, I also recommend the other thirteen books in the series.

Cute and fun

I went in expecting more about the studio rivalry and dance preparation, but I had a lot of fun reading about the courtship instead. These two were really cute and had fun relationships with other people, which I always love.

Also, I thought it was going to be set around actual Carnivale, but I get why you would set an outside dance competition story in Chicago in July 😂

Messiah and Tatiana’s Chemistry was undeniable from the moment Messiah walk into her dance studio and danced with her. The author description of the time the spent together put me right there. I couldn’t help but smile when they went to the Gun Range

Messiah romanced her with out being over the top and when they did come together as a couple it’s a wonder the fire department wasn’t called. 🔥🔥😊. God read that made me want To move my body 😊❤️

Carnivale Romance

“Move Your Body: Carnivale Chronicles” was a good read. Messiah West & Tatiana Anderson are a cute couple. ..and plus Mr. West character was professional, pleasant & always presented himself as a gentleman. Thereafter, these two had mutual professional aspirations, dance/artistic chemistry. Their carnivale romance was realistic & a natural progression. …well done👏🏽👏🏾👏🏿‼️

The chemistry between Messiah & Tatiana was of the charts. You can feel it when they danced with each other. Tati was playing hard to get but she couldn’t do the fireworks that we’re going off between them. The book was extremely descriptive that I could mentally see them move with the best described in my head.

As always, Stephanie has a way connecting these couples is a unique and loving fashion. Tatiana and Messiah was no different. The dance studio being across the street was so unique. The chemistry the flow between the two was captivating. This was a different style of writing for Stephanie, but she mastered it despite the odds. Great job love. Another five star novel!

I love a good love story. Sometimes your career can make it hard to enjoy love in a relationship but these 2 decided to make it work. This was different from other books by this author but it was still good and had everything that it needed. I was not disappointed at all!

Tatiana and Messiah danced their way right into my heart. In true SNN fashion she bought the fire and passion. Man oh man as a lover of dance I could visualize every single move. I felt the passion and it seemed as if I was a voyeur on the sidelines of love. I mean their chemistry was undeniable. Now let’s talk about the dance off. The girls clearly smoked the guys, they made me want to get up and shake something. Overall this was a really good story and a must read. There were so many other things I didn’t mention so go get your copy

Normally love reading Stephanie Norris but Messiah (loved his name) and Tatiana were a bit slow for me. With such a strong name, thought Messiah would be powerful in his moves.

Tatiana and Messiah are a match of dancing machines made in heaven. Watching then spin end and out was a delight, a must read to see the final dance.
