Are you ready to Kiss & Tango?” (Sue Margolis, author of Original Cyn)“Kiss & Tango takes us inside the world of the tango, evidencing how following your passion can lead to happiness.” (Mireille Guiliano, New York Times bestselling author of French Women Don't Get Fat)“The wonderful cover…a retro b&w photo oozing restrained eroticism, is sure to catch a browser’s eye.” (Kirkus Reviews)“Desperate for dancing…consider Marina Palmer’s memoir Kiss and Tango.” (Summer recommended reading) (Houston Chronicle)“Everything is exciting in Argentina!…Enjoy the breathless tone and the author’s unaffected appreciation for her new
"Dairy of a Samantha Jones rip off" according to Atalivar. A real piece of trash planned from the beginning to be a shameful rip off of SEX AND THE CITY with nymphomaniac man-eater SAMANTHA JONES taking on fourth rate tango dancers in the fringes of Buenos Aires tango halls.A clever idea that obviously is paying off as the publishers boast of translations to many languages,. M. Wilson said Kiss and Tango. This book is a waste of time unless you want to spend time reading about the sex and sleaze of tango dancing from the perspective of a trust funded wannabe writer. Are there no normal tango dancers in Buenos Aires - dancers who have class, ambition, intelligence - and are nice? I am sure there are some, but you woul. Kiss & Tango An amusing tale of a single woman going to live in Buenos Aires and sleeping with every tango-dancing male she comes across. Very superficial and in some instances her lack of sophistication is annoying. Not a book to be re-read.
