Synopsis

A dark fantasy of ballet, betrayal and fire.

A sacred fire.
A stolen crown.
A ballerina betrayed.

Seventeen-year-old Silva was born to be Crown Ballerina, chosen by the gods and destined to lead, until the temple burned.

Cast aside and broken, she must navigate forbidden magic, deadly rivals and dangerous secrets to reclaim her stolen future.

Set in a world of ritual, power and divine fire, Dancing with Fire is a richly atmospheric dark fantasy where classical ballet collides with ambition, envy and betrayal. Told through multiple viewpoints, it explores obsession, identity and tragic love, and how far a girl will go to reclaim her destiny when everything she was promised is taken from her.

Perfect for readers who love the intensity of Throne of Glass, the darkness of Black Swan, and dark fantasy where ambition, obsession and tragic love burn beneath the surface.

Amazon UK reviewer
