If you have a dream, there’s no better time to reach for it than today…

Meet Andrea Martinez, a prima ballerina who is forced to leave her passion in order to mother a child and be the loving wife of Gabriel. Her life seems perfect until her most painful struggle arises – her beloved husband dies in her arms. She faces a lot of hardship and frustration. All of these are witnessed by her childhood friend and guardian angel – Cassiel.                   

Nobody knows her hardship. Nobody knows that within her sweet smile is a shattered inside. Everyone thinks she’s strong when the truth is her strength is almost in the brink of annihilation.

Nobody knows that she wishes to die every morning she opens her eyes. She just continues living for the sake of her daughter and her dream of becoming a prima ballerina assoluta of the century.

Only Cassiel sees her agony. It is only him who can feel what it is like to be in the shoes of a ballerina…

Asya is the most promising ballerina the Royal Ballet has seen in years. Wildly ambitious, back-breakingly disciplined, and immensely driven, she has only one objective: prima ballerina. There is nothing she won't do to earn this once-in-a-generation title. But behind her ballerina grace she hides dark secrets of an inhumanly strict mother, pushing her body to cruel limits, and serial hookups with male dancers. Roman Zharnov is the star of the Russian ballet: young, successful, arrogant, beautiful, and worst of all, talented. He's come to London to clean up his reputation after a drug scandal nearly cost him his career. At the Royal Opera House he crosses paths with Asya, a nineteen-year-old soloist with spitfire in her eyes and a talent to match his own. Roman is convinced he's found the one ballerina that can keep up with him and his relentless work ethic, but Asya has a partner, and she wants to stay far away from the Russian prodigy with a reputation that won't seem to leave him alone. In the competitive world of classical ballet Asya is climbing the ranks and building a name for herself, but all the while she is playing a dangerous game behind the curtain. Roman is adamant they'd be a reverential on-stage match, but will soon find out that when it comes to Asya Radzevich, it's prima or nothing. • 𝐒𝐓𝐎𝐑𝐘 𝐂𝐎𝐕𝐄𝐑 by the amazing @mahgadahling • 𝐌𝐀𝐓𝐔𝐑𝐄 𝐂𝐎𝐍𝐓𝐄𝐍𝐓 𝐃𝐈𝐒𝐂𝐋𝐀𝐈𝐌𝐄𝐑 Creature's plot is not intended for a young audience.
