After a disastrous first meeting, Morgan, 89, and Dixie, 79, move in together–for economic reasons, they agree. But the relationship changes and strengthens as the couple unites to combat illness, scandal and a near-fatal accident. It’s also a tale about how insecurities, humiliations and fears, though long past, can haunt a person throughout his days. Dixie fears intimacy. Morgan has concealed important details about his divorce, his estranged children, and his lost Chicago banking job. When a grandson whom Morgan has never met, bent on vengeance for past wrongs, invades their lives, he becomes a catalyst, eventually bringing the couple the love and pride they’d lost decades before with the loss of their children. Written with great humor and a deep understanding of the challenges associated with aging in America, One Last Dance is an inspiration to all generations, reminding us to live every day and always be in search of new experiences, regardless of age.
