Some of the students would go on to apprenticeships with the company, others to universities, and others would continue with their lessons. And wait. And hope. And dream... But Maggie can't wait. When she finds out, on her eighteenth birthday, that she isn't being offered an apprenticeship, she rushes into a strange new world of romance and relationships, of auditions and experimental dance. For Maggie Adams, the time between dances is the hardest time of all. It is a time to love and learn--and become a woman of her own.
Maggie Adams, Dancer (Maggie Adams, Dancer #1)
by Karen Strickler Dean"All my life I've heard Cinderella stories about a nobody stepping into a starring role at a moment's notice. I never dreamed it would happen to me." Maggie Adams lives in a dancer's world--of strained muscles and dirty toe shoes, sacrifices and triumphs, hard work and tough competition. In her world her only friends are dancers--Joyce, who wisely recognizes the limitations of her dancing ability and little Lupe, so afraid of being overweight that she refuses to eat at all. In Maggie's world there is little time for anything but dance, as her family and her boyfriend come to learn. Her mother spoils her, her father isn't convinced of her talent, and her boyfriend can't understand why he doesn't come first in her life. But Maggie--spirited, gifted and determined--will let nothing stand in her way. Before all else, Maggie Adams is a dancer.

And to add to her problems, the boy she loved was demanding an answer to his marriage proposal... an answer that might mean the end of her dancing career. Maybe wanting to have it all was an impossible dream, but no one was more determined than Maggie Adams to stay on her toes as a prima ballerina... and to follow her heart as well.
