But the sudden death of his dance partner puts Michael's settled life in a tailspin and has him questioning himself when he falls head over heels for his new dance partner, Elizabeth.
In this heartfelt journey of self-discovery, Michael finds himself caught between loyalty and longing. As secrets unravel and relationships are tested, Dance of the Heart explores the complexity of love, identity, and the choices that define us.
