Dear Reader,
How long could you get away with living a double life?
With her mother ill, it's up to fifteen-year-old Ruby Jacinski to support her family. Which is tough going in 1941 Chicago...until she falls in with the neighborhood bad boy, Paulie. Soon, Ruby is getting paid to dance with lonely menand learning how to "fish" them for cash, clothes, even jewelry. As long as her family doesn't find out what she's doing, her problemsand theirsare solved. But secrets and bad boys are both hard to keep...especially when swinging with the hepcats turns into swimming with the sharks.
TEN CENTS A DANCE is packed with soul-shaking jazz, killer '40s style, and the passions of a young generation on the eve of war. Visit www.christinefletcherbooks.com to read an excerpt, and enter to win one of ten signed copies. I look forward to meeting you!
