Ex-Marine and bar-owner Soren, the quiet loner of the Thorvald brothers, reluctantly offers himself at a Take a Bachelor to Dinner Auction for charity. But when the minx who “won” him seems to be making a quick getaway under the table, a humiliated and angry Soren hoists her over his shoulder and storms from the ballroom.

So begins a rocky love affair between two unlikely people.

But when thirty-year old Crystal D’Angelo’s talisman tells her that Soren is The One she’s been waiting for, she’s ready to give him everything—heart, soul…virginity.

Soren, whose “man-woman skills” are almost nonexistent, finds he is unable to stay away from the innocent but sensual Crystal, who unleashes a sexual side of him he never knew existed.

But convincing Soren—who learned as a child that love hurts, and no woman can be trusted with his heart—that what she feels for him is about more than magic, is a tough battle she won’t give up on.

As things heat up between them, a psychotic stalker takes exception to Crystal’s relationship with Soren and violently turns her world upside down.

5 stars, KayleeMarie Walker, Just Erotic Romance Reviews

“When Crystal and Soren interact, they are both nervous wrecks: her clumsiness surfaces while his foot is constantly in his mouth…when they get together, wow! The sex scenes are so downright hot that toys are a must. I enjoyed the complexity of both main characters and found that they are perfect for each other…A definite keeper!”
4/5 stars, Tallyn Porter, Just Erotic Romance Reviews

Dance of the Crystal made me melt. Actually, spontaneous combustion might be more along the lines of what I felt reading this book. Soren instantly became the object of my obsession and totally endeared himself to me, not to say, however, that he isn’t one of the most stubborn and pigheaded heroes I have ever read about…I adored Crystal. At the risk of being hurt, she decided to go after her man and nothing was going to stop her. Add a bit of suspense and the terror of an unknown stalker and I was satisfied. Dance of the Crystal, the third book in the Dance series by Cris Anson, is just an all around, highly erotic, wonderful read.
Talia Ricci, Joyfully Reviewed

DANCE OF THE CRYSTAL is the third book in Cris Anson’s scorching Dance series. This was a great read that really touches on many of the fears and worries that come with falling in love. Soren and Crystal are so shy and hesitant around each other that it was truly like watching two people finally awaken out of their shells from the power of love. They share a sizzling attraction, but it is the tentative way they reach out to each other emotionally that really gives this story the necessary oomph to make it realistic and truly lovely. Cris Anson has successfully written another beautiful and tumultuous love story.

Crystal and Soren’s connection is evident, but with all of their sometimes humorous, sometimes heart-wrenching communication mishaps, the anticipation just keeps building until the very end! Dance of the Crystal is a fantastic story with characters who I’ve found to be unique and irresistible! Cris Anson’s third installment in the Dance series is the best yet! Filled to the brim with humor, steamy erotic scenes, passionate emotions, and thrilling action, Dance of the Crystal is a truly magnificent tale, with a depth that I don’t see very often! This is definitely one series that everyone should keep an eye on!
