Grunt

A Marine's Promise I'd once been a ballroom champion and reality star Selena had been my partner. Nothing left but childhood dreams and memories of first love.  Until I received the offer.  A letter bribing me to be on Dancing under the Stars. Hell, no. I have no desire for fame or fortune. Except I made a promise once.  To a dying man. My best friend. I swore to him that I'd take care of his wife and kids.  Fifty thousand dollars. For humiliating myself on national television, spending time with the woman who'd left me, losing my privacy, becoming the laughing stock of the Marine Corps. One season, ten weeks, a small sacrifice to make for the man who'd saved my life. Hand me my dance shoes.  I'm in.
