Summary:
"Once, Genie Davis was the star pupil of her prestigious New York ballet academy, on track to become prima ballerina. She was preparing for audtitions. She was
turning
pirouettes onstage. Now she turns the wheels on her wheelchair. After a traumatic fall from the roof of her three-story apartment building, Genie has lost the use of her legs - and with it, her identity as a ballerina. Untethered from the things that used to define her, Genie has turned sour and sad, isolating herself from her dance friends, her ex-boyfriend, and her mom. The sole light is a cute boy at physical therapy - an ex-gymnast whose brain injury has halted his ability to compete and who, more than most, understands what Genie's going thorugh. And then there's Hannah, a former dance friend, who refuses to let Genie believe she has taken her final bow. Together, they give Genie hope that her time onstage isn't over. But before she can move forward, She has to confront her past, reckon with some secrets, and come to terms with her career-ending fallm which may not have been just an accident after all." --jacket.
