1st DRAFT EDITION Disclaimer: I was 14 when I started and 15 when I finished this draft. It gets better towards the end, but by the time of-age characters seemed appropriate to me, this book was long since complete and I was already working on a second draft. For everyone's sake, in this draft, just figure they're 18. (Because istg im this close to offing marley with how much crap I'm still getting over their ages. I was that age when I wrote it. At the time it felt far more inappropriate to write about anyone older than 15.) Copyright © 2014 by Kira Greer All rights reserved.

"All the world's a stage" - William Shakespeare Two girls are selected from each country to attend a world famous boarding school, known for its extremely talented students and amazing trips across the globe. So when Eleanor Hampton, an English pianist with crippling anxiety is chosen, it should be a one in a life time experience, right? Well...mostly. Making friends was easy, but what is she supposed to do when her roommate, Lena Volkova, a Russian ballerina determined to turn her dream into a reality, hates her? Or does she? Both Eleanor and Lena share troubled pasts but if they can learn to trust and support each other, perhaps something deeper can grow. After all, it's not easy being alone in a school of girls fighting to become legends. © 2017 by Heather Darte
