Shiloh was going to be an actress - she had a scholarship to a good school - and Cary was laser-focused on the Navy. Sharp, stoic, golden-eyed Cary . . . thin as a stick of gum and poor as dirt. He was probably the most decent person Shiloh has ever known. She hasnt spoken to him in fourteen years.n nWhen Shiloh gets an invitation to a high school friends wedding, Cary is the first and only thing on her mind.n nShe desperately wants to see him again, but she doesnt know if she can bear being seen by him.

After everything?n nThe answer, it turns out, is yes.n nIn her triumphant return to adult fiction, Rainbow Rowell has written a love story so honest and human - so cathartic - youll feel it in your bones. Slow Dance is a power ballad of a book, brimming with Rowells signature compassion and wit. Its deeply affecting and profoundly romantic.n
