Truly lovely. Well-written with good back stories hinted at without overdoing it. Excellent character development. And the whole thing is a multigenerational plot twist. Brava.

I think my wood burning stove is letting smoke fill the house. Every time that happens, it makes my eyes get wet. It must be that what is causing the tears.

I have been on lit for many years and I must say that this was the most enjoyable story I have ever read on this site. And yes, the ending made my eyes moist as well. All I can say is BRAVO!!

What a wonderful story, well written (even with the couple of typos) with so much feeling and love. It was nice to see the turn around Nancy did with her life after she found something she believed in. Sad that Bill never got to see his daughter, but still a good ending. Thanks

Julie, I stumbled across this while searching for something else. Initially I was attracted by the title because a lot of my stories are titled from songs, old and new. Anyway, I'm so pleased that I did stumble. This is a charming story and I thoroughly enjoyed it---it is five stars worth of reading pleasure.

Very nice to read. Thanks for a good story. I have danced with my daughter since she could

walk and we both get request from real dancers to dance with them.

It’s getting harder to find a place for real dancing but there are a few places left in or near New Orleans.

I am practically speechless. I most definitely was not expecting that surprise ending. I had imagined a happy ending with them falling in love and getting to spend part of their lives together. It simply was one of the best stories I've ever read here on Lit. It is a tremendous love story, I loved the fire and passion that built up between them despite their age difference. Thank you!

Another old man with tears in his eyes. Memories of dancing with my wife 60 years ago.

Thank you for a lovely story.

Shades of O. Henry! What a twist. Beautiful story. Thank you.

How appropriate that the Argentine Tango launched their lovemaking. Dancing --- "in the old-fashioned way", as the song goes --- is one of the most intimate communications a man and woman can have when they learn each other's messages, bodies, rhythms.

Bravo for a story about lovely dancing that was both romantic and erotic in addition to being achingly poignant.

I have been asked if the contents of my stories are true, well some are and some aren't. The Julie Journals are autobiographical and about 95% true. I have changed names in some places and amended timelines to condense into a single story. Outside of the Julie Journals where...
