How far would you go to have what you most desire?

Work hard. Study hard. Lie. Sneak. Use dark magic...

Wanting something in the worst way is a very dangerous thing.

I had the pleasure of beta reading this story and it's a good one. Young Lindsey will do anything to be a famous ballerina, so working with Madame Destinee is a dream come true. The dream turns to nightmare as Lindsey begins ot realize that Madame Destinee will sacrifice everything and everyone to maintain her talent.

“I only desire your talent...”

Twelve-year-old Lindsey McKay's biggest dream is to be a famous ballerina. But after moving to New York, she ends up at the Community Center with a teacher who’s a burly bear in tights.
When she meets Madame Destinée, the teacher of a top dance school who offers her classes for free, Lindsey can't believe her luck. In exchange, she must perform in the school’s exclusive midnight shows, ones sure to make her a star. But something’s not right...
One by one, the other dancers disappear. Each time they do, a music box with a figurine just like the missing ballerina joins Madame Destinée’s growing collection. If Lindsey doesn’t discover the truth about the dance school, she might end up a tiny figurine herself.
