Crashing Down Danielle Stewart

Lu-Ella settles into her favorite chair at the Happy Heart Dance Studio. Like every Tuesday night, she's ready to watch her sweet daughter, Rudy, have fun. The outside world isn't built for Rudy and her limitations, but the family they have built at the dance studio wholeheartedly embraces her. When tragedy strikes, Lu-Ella will find out just how hard a mother will fight to save her child. For the first time in Rudy's life, she realizes she can't do this on her own. Mike isn't looking for a place to settle down. As far as he's concerned, roots may as well be chains. Only a few months since his last deployment, he's settling terribly into civilian life. No matter how hard his old friend, Click, tries, there's just no room in this suburban world for him. One evening while working on repairs at the dance studio the code he lives by is called into question. Leaving isn't an option this time. Because running means leaving Lu-Ella to fend for herself . . . and there was no way in hell he'll do that.
