Dancing With Fire

By Zoe James-Williams

A sacred fire. A stolen crown. A ballerina betrayed.

Seventeen-year-old Silva was born to be Crown Ballerina - chosen by the goddess, honoured by the temple, and destined for greatness.

Until the temple burned.

Now cast aside and broken, Silva must navigate a world of forbidden magic, deadly rivals, and dangerous secrets to reclaim her stolen future.

This dark fantasy debut blends classical ballet with slow-burning vengeance and a richly imagined world of performance, politics, and power.
