Women in Red - Paperback

by Jordan Rosenfeld (Author)

Dead-broke single mother Stella Russo, daughter of a world-class prima ballerina, has nearly given up on her own professional aspirations-much less true love-when a dazzling impromptu stunt by a mysterious troupe reminds her just how empowering performing onstage can be. Convincing herself that a dependable gig with such a company just might be the ticket to a better life for her musical-prodigy daughter and now-invalid mother, Stella takes a giant jeté of faith and joins up. When she lands in the clutches of an enigmatic and demanding impresario bent on making her his star at any cost, she becomes entangled in the troupe's secrets. Women in Red draws readers into the dark, dangerous, and dramatically sexy underworld of dance-but also into the longing of every living, breathing being for a family of one's own.
