In summer 1942 Blackpool, three girls navigate the challenges of WWII while pursuing their passion for dance. Sylvia, the pampered daughter of a determined dance school owner, faces pressure to win competitions by any means necessary. Pearl, the eldest of a bustling family working at the Pleasure Beach, dreams of joining the glamorous world of ballroom dancing, feeling like an outsider. Joy, an evacuee who lost her parents in the Blitz, lives in a rundown boarding house and works as a cleaner. Despite her shyness, she discovers a love for the American Jitterbug, which leads to an unexpected opportunity when a rival dance school recognizes her talent. Amidst blackouts and air raids, the allure of the ballroom remains strong, but the competition is fierce. Will the Ballroom Girls achieve their dreams through the joy of dance? Readers have praised the engaging storytelling and emotional depth, with many expressing their love for the characters and the gripping narrative.
