Danni has recently broken up  with husband, the only man she has ever known, who left her whilst pregnant for her best friend from childhood.   The stress of the break up  means she loses the longed for second child.  Alone and friendless, with a child support she is lost.   One evening when  she goes to  pick her daughter up from a Street Dancing class,  she arrives early and wanders into the studios.   There she notices a group of women, wearing colourful garments and she is drawn to their graceful moves.   Their voices are warm and laughing and when they notice  her watching, they beckon her in.   Still a little wary, they  seem to sense her hesitation, they come out to talk to her and suggest she comes to the next class.   When she shakes her head, the teacher offers her the  first class free.   Somehow she finds herself agreeing to attend.   Every woman  in the  group has her own  story and soon she finds the loneliness drifts away and  happiness fills her life as she belly dances her worries and fears away, making a new full life.

"Bridget Jones with a lot more wine! This story is hilarious, feel-good and relatable in all the best ways!" - Grace K @ HQ. She's just quit her high-flying job and her marriage is coasting on fumes. Can Alice find a sense of purpose in all the madness? ***** Alice's life isn't going to plan. She's tied to her phone, pointlessly managing PR for a sinking corporate megalith. She's become a bit player in her kids' lives and her marriage is coasting on fumes. Forcing herself into action with a rash resignation, Alice sets out to make a positive impact on the world around her. But how? Meditation leads to napping and her attempts to get closer to her teenage daughter result in the discovery of a secret that left her at loss of what to do! As the months tick by and a sense of purpose continues to elude her, Alice finds herself forming bonds with the most unlikely characters: the young woman who panhandles outside her old office; the homeless boy who sits cross-legged outside the liquor store with his ginger cat; her own dog walker who, it turns out, knows a thing or two about developing a good crema. Testing the limits of marriage, motherhood and the Toronto subway system--can Alice find her way into a purpose-driven life? Or will it all be one giant hangover? [*Wattpad Editor's Pick 2018*] [[word count: 70,000-80,000 words]] Readers say: "This had me laughing so loud that my sister came to check up on me to see if I'm OK!!!" "...the new Bridget Jones, a working woman's take on the digital age." About the Author: Working mother, annoying vegetarian and red wine enthusiast, Renee lives in Toronto with her flawed but wonderful family (seriously, who left socks on the kitchen counter?) in a flawed but wonderful house (what *is* that smell in the basement?).
