Pointe of Breaking

When Ivy League & Tutus Collide

A collaboration by Amy Daws & Sarah J. Pepper

POINTE

Getting screwed over backstage by my married-ex tears my heart into a million tiny pieces.

[Sitting in the audience at the ballet with my former fling wasn’t my idea of fun.]

I live in my pointe shoes, not even my ex can taint my love for ballet.

[I hate the ballet. This on again/off again crap was getting old.]

And then my whole world changes when I notice the smoldering gaze…

[Then I look to the stage, and I can’t take my eyes off…]

OF...

Leo Richards.

[Adeline Parker.]

Concentrating on anything except his sexy…everything, is impossible.

[Her presence commands my attention…I’ve never experienced this before.]

He makes me second-guess everything I’ve ever dreamed about.

[She makes me question everything I’ve ever known.]

Fighting him is a strategic sport—no clothes allowed.

[All I can think about are her sexy ballerina legs wrapped around me—tutu definitely on.]

BREAKING

Our scandalous rendezvous is plastered all over NYC’s tabloids.

[Because of my status in Manhattan, now I’ve dragged her into the limelight.]

My ex will stop at nothing to tear us apart.

[Seriously powerful people forbid me to be with her.]

Rumors about his past keep building.

[I can’t tell her this secret.]

When it came to Leo, I only knew the big things.

[When it came to Adeline, I knew nothing about the little things.]

But uncovering those things about him [her] may push us past our breaking point.
