DANCE. Guns.
MUSIC. Bullets. RHYTHM. Pain. Music in my head, dance in my body, the rhythm of my heart. How far can you fall in just one month? How quickly can the human spirit be broken? Where does evil hide in plain sight? Ash wants to dance. Needs it. To leave behind a life of expectation and duty, to set his soul free. But life is never that simple. Every step is a journey on a new road. For every action, there is a reaction. Every choice has a consequence. And when you meet the wrong person, all bets are off. Laney tolerates her limitations, pushing quietly at boundaries. But when Ash crashes into her world through rage and violence, it sets off a chain reaction that neither of them expected.
Laney Hennessey is determined to not let her physical limitations limit her life. So against the wishes of her on and off boyfriend – She takes a trip to Las Vegas with her girlfriends and encounters a man that is both beautiful and dangerous.
Aljaž Novak – also known as Ash – came to Las Vegas from Slovenia to dance. He had no idea that he would fall into the evil and twisted grip of Bratva – the Russian Mob. He lives in a cold place where people are bought, sold and sometimes just disappear without ever being seen again. And when he thinks his life is about to end - he’s rescued from a fate worse than death by a girl with a smile as warm as sunshine. Together, they make no sense but there’s just something about falling in love that always defies all reason. And I forgave him for being stubborn and secretive. And I forgave him for being intense and driven. And I forgave him for shouting at me when he was stressed and tired. I forgave every time he’d closed me down or shut me out, because this was him telling me through every step, through every movement of his beautiful body, that I was loved, that I was desired, and that everything that had happened between us was real.
Jane Harvey Berrick delivers one of her most emotional stories yet with Slave to the Rhythm. The raw and disturbing subject matter coalesce perfectly with the elements of a tender love story to make this book a harrowing and yet satisfying read...

For as long as I can remember, I wanted to write. Perhaps it was growing up in a village well known for its mystery and folklore, which sparked my imagination as a child.
I enjoy writing in several different genres, and I've just published my first romcom, 'Dazzled'. All my books have a little me in them, and I'm inspired by the personal stories of those around me. It's often from a simple discussion overheard in the train ('Exposure'), in a café, or in the street, where ideas for characters or scenes come to me. I fell in love with both Sam ('The New Samurai') and the eponymous Sebastian in 'The Education of Sebastian' and the sequel 'The Education of Caroline', and missed them desperately once I'd finished their stories. I love writing dialogue and always try to include touches of humour in the most poignant stories. Whether you like adult romance novels, new or young adult writing, thrillers, or fantasy, I hope you'll enjoy the journey through my stories. Visit With Jane -
