The only child of one of the wealthiest families, she was raised to be perfect in every way: flawless ballerina, flawless student, flawless daughter. But behind the bows and sundresses, only her cousin Ada knows how cracked she really is. She was on the brink of her dream, set to dance the lead in Giselle.

And Reagan Diamant Hunter isn't just tearing Ali's perfect little world apart, he's rebuilding her from the ashes, piece by piece, until she belongs to him.
