Blurb:
Grayson Anders has it all. He’s the co-owner of a happening nightclub in downtown Boston, he’s wealthy, and women practically throw themselves at his feet the moment he steps on the dance floor. But profiting from these obvious benefits is not his desire. His passion is dancing and he wants nothing more than to find the perfect dance partner.

Chloe LaRoche is a talented artist, but a failing entrepreneur. Her once thriving studio is now on the brink of foreclosure and unless she paints the next Van Gogh Starry Night, she’ll have to cut her losses and say goodbye to her quaint little gallery. Fearing her career is at an end, she drags herself to the local hot spot, determined to drown her worries in the bottom of a shot glass. At least that was the plan…until she lays eyes on a wickedly sexy, swarthy dancer in the club—Grayson Anders.

Unable to resist, Chloe finds herself in Grayson’s arms, indulging in a passionate, out-of-control, one night stand. And when they awaken the next morning, they are both consumed with inspiration.

Grayson finds his perfect dance partner and Chloe finally finds her muse. But, will her secret destroy both their dreams?


*Nominated for "Book of the Year 2011"


Reviews:

"Ms. Vincent’s writing has the unique ability of capturing both the reader’s heart and mind. The emotional investment in the characters starts from the beginning. You’ll want things for them that you might never have otherwise thought about wanting for someone so fiercely. As the story builds, so does Grayson and Chloe’s indescribable chemistry. They may feel like they come from two different worlds, but they couldn’t be more compatible. The contemporary setting makes it that much easier to envision the characters and environment as the story unfolds. The title is very fitting with a few different meanings behind it, which are revealed throughout the story. I thoroughly enjoyed everything about this story and would love to see it become a movie.
Another highly recommended read by Renee Vincent!"

"What did you expect when you read the title, Silent Partner? Big business, and mega-buck takeovers perhaps? If so, think again. This is Ms. Vincent’s debut venture into mainstream romance, and the wait was more than worth it.

Do not mistake the ‘sweet’ rating for tepid writing. Silent Partner is well researched, offering background information woven into her story so skilfully it blew me away.

The author takes her hero and heroine through twisted and tortuous hoops of self-discovery and growth and brings them together in a believable manner. Her writing sparkles, and given this is the author’s first attempt at contemporary mainstream romance, she creates the right impact for settings, pace and conflict. Her main characters are fully developed as are the supporting cast. Her balance of the self-absorbed hero meeting emotionally challenged heroine is stunning because of her research into the heroine’s background. This book is a keeper."

"Renee Vincent captures our mind as well as our hearts as we find ourselves entwined in the dance between Chloe and Grayson. There are underlying depths to the story that makes you stop and think about your own lives. As the tension arises between Chloe and Grayson so does the chemistry that is undeniable. Renee shows us that once fate steps in, no matter what obstacles are thrown at us there is always a way to obtain what we want in life if we just have the passion, hope and trust to do so."

"With every turn of the page the words had me drawn like a moth to a flame. The major plot twists were so well written that I never saw them coming and lets be honest anymore that is a GREAT thing to have happen. I fell in love with Gray and Chloe from page one to the very end. This was an awesome book of beautifully written love scenes, surprises at every turn, and truly good show of how one person can adapt to anything if there is love involved!"

"Silent Partner is a great read! Initially, I did not like the way these two came together. Not because it was a one night stand, but the way it happened. Later in the story we learn the reasons why they came together that way, and it completed the story for me. Ms. Vincent’s characters are filled with emotion and a realness that had me disliking Grayson for a large part of the book. Later, I cheered him on as he tried to redeem himself and make himself worthy of Chloe. Chloe had me in tears. Her hurt and anger at the situation were real and wonderfully written. I know this book will keep you turning pages till the end."

"A wonderful contemporary romance story, full of detail, sensuality, and emotion. A keeper! This is a deeply emotional story that will resonate with you for a long while."
~ 5 Stars! Author Maddie James

"What a fascinating concept for a story. Ms. Vincent didn't need to generate the conflict in Silent Partner, it was there from the beginning - lurking beneath the driving beat of the music and humming through the sexually charged encounter Chloe and Grayson shared. While I liked Grayson and appreciated the lengths he undertook to make his relationship with Chloe work, I wished she would have made him suffer a little more for his insensitivity. He deserved it. Just as Ms. Vincent deserves every well-earned accolade that comes her way."
~ 5 Star! Author Margaret Ethridge

"This book was both steamy and emotional--my favorite combination! I fell in love with the well-developed, real characters. I highly recommend this book as a fantastic read!"
~ 5 Stars! Author Nicole North

"Have you ever read a book where the character stays with you long after the story has finished? Hot, sexy, and a slow burn come to my mind, when reading this story. From page one, you’re actively engaged with Grayson Anders and Chloe LaRoche as Vincent weaves a passionate tale of love, anguish and triumph. Along the way, she takes you on a plot-twisting ride that touches the heart, mind, and soul. I walked away from Silent Partner with a smile on my face and lightness in my heart."
~ Lizzie Walker


"Silent Partner, by Renee Vincent, is a moving love story that will have your feet moving to the rhythm of the wonderfully descriptive dancing scenes! Grayson Anders is a seriously single club owner in search of the perfect dance partner. When he spots Chloe LaRoche having a solitary drink at the club's bar, he is immediately captivated. Chloe proves to be his equal on the dance floor, and in passion's dance as well, but she is also a lady of mystery. Grayson determines to have Chloe in his life, and he is shocked when he unravels her secrets. This touching love story just got better and better as two souls were laid bare, and two hearts learned to trust as their faith in each other gained them the ultimate partnership. "Silent Partner" is a highly enjoyable celebration of romance and dance!"
