A one-night only event with Oti Mabuse and Sarah Gwonyoma.
Oti will be discussing her sizzling, swoon-worthy debut romance, her writing process and what it takes to create a cast of characters that you can’t help but fall in love with. Perfect for fans of Colleen Hoover, Tahlia Hibbert, Ana Huang, Lauren Asher and Tessa Bailey.

Hosted by writer and literary critic, Sarah Gwonyoma, join Oti for an evening of romance.
For dancer Lira, Latin Ballroom is everything.
Whilst her dreams of fame were cut short just before her 19th birthday, she’s never forgotten the connection she felt dancing with a stranger at the Paris World Championship afterparty 13 years ago.
Now, with her younger sisters pursuing their own successful dancing careers, and the responsibility of running the family dance studio falling to her, Lira’s ambitious flame is about to flicker out.
That is, until a chance encounter sees her secretly auditioning for Slow Burn, a new dance show about to embark on a 6-week European tour, and coming face to face with a blast from her past that sends her reeling.
Gabriele is the quintessential bad boy of the Latin Ballroom scene. With a chiselled jaw, dark eyes, obscenely long lashes, and a mouth that just won’t give, it's no surprise when he lands the principal male lead role on Slow Burn. But, with just a few weeks to go till the tour starts, he still hasn't found his female co-star. All it takes is one audition to set his world on fire...
On the dance floor, they’re smouldering, off it, they’re on fire.
