I received a complimentary digital copy of this book from the publisher and NetGalley. This review is my voluntary and unbiased opinion.
This story is told in alternate timelines.
Margaux is a 13 year old ballerina admitted to the infamous Paris Opera Ballet. It is quite an honor to be chosen at such a young age. She immediately feels pressure from new student Linsey Price who is beautiful and very talented. Both girls arrive at the prestigious institution hoping to leave behind troubled, dysfunctional family lives.
It is a rather dark and competitive world amongst the ballerinas who are always working hard to vie for key roles. The artistic director of the Paris Opera Ballet, Nathalie Dorival, becomes fixated on portraying the story of Romanov and the country’s last tsarina. The tumultuous relationships that develop and eventually reunite years later is convoluted and unexpected.
