Thacia Alexandria Marie Jacobs breaths, sweats and bleeds dance. It's basically what her whole life consists of, well until a platinum haired, gray eyed boy by the name of Draco Troy Lawson comes into the picture.
Her whole life she's been sheltered, locked up in her dance studio hitting pirouettes, en pointes, and brisès. Her long brown-almost-black hair pulled up in a bun with stay strands falling into her face.
When she's given a new dance titled "Burn" her whole life changes. Her adoptive parents get divorced, her dance studio shuts down, and Draco Lawson comes to Seaside high. Oh yeah, her best friend also stabs her in the back. Could anything else go wrong?
You bet.
Every girls worst nightmare happens, her diary goes missing. That along with countless pages that's filled with one name, Draco, and thousands of hearts, love poems, her deepest secrets, no biggie, right?
Thacia doesn't know if she can handle it anymore. Life does have a weird way of test us though, either everything happens at once or nothing happens at all. Will she survive?
Or.
Will.
It.
All.
Just.
Burn.
