Anton Du Beke – the King of Ballroom, 'Strictly Come Dancing' royalty, and household name – is one of this generation's all-round entertainers. Being with your partner may feel like rainbows and unicorns, but that doesn't mean you have a healthy, functioning relationship.

The book is full of different, interesting characters with their own storylines, personalities and problems. Bringing their own unique and counter-balanced personalities to proceedings they ask questions such as: what is happiness?

In this five-part series, US happiness expert and positive psychologist Michelle Gielan and British journalist and author Oliver Burkeman explore ways to become truly happier, backed up by scientific evidence.

The audiobook reflects Rhonda’s own journey and shares the most direct way out for those experiencing hardship and the path to end pain and suffering endured by so many, and it shines a light on a future without anxiety or fear.In particular this book “A Christmas to Remember” follows Raymond Du Guise and his wife to be,Nancy Nettleton and also Vivienne Edgerton (step daughter to Lord Edgerton) and her activities at the ‘Daughters of Salvation’ homeless shelter.

When fiercely independent chambermaid Nancy Nettleton first moved to London and the Buckingham hotel, the last thing on her mind was finding love, let alone falling for the debonair demonstration dancer Raymond de Guise.

A re-read after reading the first two in the series, I enjoyed this even more this time around as I now knew the backgrounds and stories of the various characters. To say I blooming loved my time spent reading this book - to say that I consider some of the characters to be friends - to say that I felt bereft leaving them at the end - would all be an understatement. With a touring dance company in the ballroom and Billy once again acting as the eyes and ears of the hotel for Mr Charles and his spymasters the novel moves between storylines and individual characters predicaments with aplomb, maintaining a brisk pace and keeping the entire story intriguing. As Strictly's longest running professional dancer, and now Judge, Anton is the perfect author to lead the reader to the dancefloor as never before. ANTON DU BEKE, household name and all-round entertainer, brings the charm and style he's famous for to his writing.My grandaughter, not a reader by any description but a lover of dance may very well enjoy this book and if it brings more lovers of dance to books, that's pretty wonderful, too. I don’t want to give too much away so I won’t delve into the different storylines, but there was plenty of drama and intrigue that kept me entertained throughout!
