    About this ebook

    It was a dream come true. Ellie has become a contestant in the National Art of Dance Competition. And she has no intention of accepting anything less than first place.

    But it isn’t her skills alone that will be the deciding factor. Every dancer in the competition is given a partner. Ellie’s been paired Alexander, a dancer who is at least as handsome as he is talented.

    Ellie cannot deny her attraction to the confident, almost cocky, dancer. Will they end up being partners off the dance floor, too? Or will their feelings just end up getting in the way of Ellie’s dream?

The National Art of Dance Competition, she thought to herself, excitement flowing freely through her. Over the next five days she would be matched with a partner, get lessons from famous choreographers, and end it all with a national dance competition.

      Ellie looked down at her itinerary, scanning over her schedule for the week. She would be meeting her partner soon, and she couldn’t help but worry she might not end up
