New England School of Ballet

A breathtaking second-chance, forced proximity romance following two dancers as they navigate heartbreak, healing, and hope, featuring stunning stenciled edges.

Getting into the New England School of Ballet is everything Zoe has ever wanted. But it comes with a cost—seeing Jase again. The boy who once knew every piece of her heart. The boy she hasn’t spoken to in a year. The boy who still doesn’t know the real reason she pushed him away.

For Jase, Zoe’s sudden reappearance is like a punch to the gut. He’s already juggling enough—parents who don’t believe in his dream of dancing, the pressure to prove himself at the academy, and the ache of everything he’s lost. The last thing he needs is Zoe showing up and unraveling the careful walls he’s built around himself.

But when they’re paired as dance partners, avoiding each other is no longer an option. Every step they take together brings back the past—the hidden notes, the whispered secrets, the electric connection that never really went away. And with it comes the memory of the night that shattered everything between them.

As the lines between their shared history and their unspoken pain blur, Zoe and Jase have to decide: will they finally face the truth of what happened, or will the weight of their secrets keep them apart for good?
