| book description |

â€œI've spent most of my life in the wings at Lincoln Center, and fiction rarely gets dancers right. This book does.â€ â€”Glenn Green, repertory director and former New York City Ballet dancer When the lives of a disheartened prima ballerina and an injured hockey star collide, can their pas de deux end in an encore? What happens when the one thing that defines you is ripped away, and youâ€™re forced to rebuild from the ground up? When NHL forward Liam LeClercâ€™s career-threatening injury refuses to heal, desperation drives him to an unlikely solution: ballet lessons from Petra Montgomery, a talented soloist overlooked due to her companyâ€™s politics. In secret, after-hours studio sessions, Petra teaches Liam that strength comes in unexpected forms while he reminds her why she fell in love with dance, before ambition complicated everything. But when their unconventional partnership threatens both their careers, they must decide if the connection theyâ€™ve found is worth risking everything theyâ€™ve worked for. The Swan and the Sentinel is a story that reminds us sometimes the best comebacks require learning an entirely new discipline, even if itâ€™s performed in fifth position.
