The final novel in the Blackpool-set WWII saga series from Jenny Holmes, following three girls who waltz their worries away on the dancefloor... Perfect for fans of Nancy Revell and Margaret Dickinson.

'Live for the day' is the motto for the times, and our girls plan to waltz their worries away...

Ever-ambitious Sylvia wants more from her life, so starts planning a Dance Weekend at the Winter Gardens - not easy in wartime when air raids could cancel an event at the last minute. What she doesn't expect is for the competition to bring the dashing Vernon into her life too! Could everything finally fall into place for Sylvia?

Joy's life has entirely turned around in the last year. Newly married to her beloved Tommy and at the helm of her family's business in Manchester, she can't believe how far she's come. But will the plight of her young employee Mildred throw things off course? Or will she and Tommy still be able to perfect their waltz in time for the competition?

Pearl is still longing for her darling Bernie to return from the war. Dancing is the best way to distract herself from her worries, so she throws herself into rehearsing the jive with handsome GI partner Errol. But as tongues begin to wag, will the ballroom still provide the solace she needs?

As the war wears on, can the Ballroom Girls really hit the big time?
