Seventeen hearts. One dancer. The final number.
Tiffany Brooks has nothing left to prove—except to herself. Rising through the ranks of London's ballet elite, she's learned to survive on discipline, solitude, and the quiet fire that keeps her dancing when everything else falls apart.
Then she meets Captain Jonathan Kilmartin. War hero. Charmer. Collector of women.
He's broken in ways she can't fix and beautiful in ways she can't resist. And when he drops to one knee with a diamond and a promise, Tiffany believes she's the one—the woman who will finally heal him.
But healing isn't the same as love. And love isn't the same as salvation.
From the dimly lit clubs of Soho to the glittering stages of Sadler's Wells, Cry Me a River traces the intimate devastation of a relationship that takes more than it gives—and the long, painful road back to yourself.
Because sometimes the bravest thing you can do isn't staying. It's walking away.
