Dear Maggie.  I will always love you...Keep me safe in your heart.
--Rob.

His letters thrilled her as a young woman in love for the first time, and now, many years later, they mean more than ever to Maggie McIntyre.  After her husband of twenty years leaves her for a younger woman, it's the discovery of Robbie's letters that gives Maggie a renewed sense of purpose: to return to Little Bear Lake and recapture the woman she once was--the woman she knows she could be again.

But time has changed the place she knew and loved.  The Harvest Moon dance hall where she worked as a waitress is closed.  Still, Maggie is determined to reopen it, with the help of friends and a special man who enters her life in a most unexpected way.  As they work together to make her dream come true, a powerful attraction develops between them.  Maggie struggles with her feelings for a younger man whose age stands in the way of her growing affection for him.  But their passion is undeniable, and soon she will have to decide which is more important to her: what other people think, or what she feels in her heart.

In Dancing at the Harvest Moon, a story of first love rekindled, 46-year-old Maggie McIntyre has just lost her husband to another woman and sees no reason to remain in Kansas City. She decides to return to The Harvest Moon, the dance hall where she worked in college. So we go there with her, back to the beautiful Canadian town on Little Bear Lake, where Maggie faces all of those juicy yet unanswered questions: Will true love find her? Will Rob, her first love, finally forgive her? Is she prepared to face the demons that have for so long kept real passion at bay?
