“I've spent most of my life in the wings at Lincoln Center, and fiction rarely gets dancers right. This book does.”
—Glenn Green, repertory director and former New York City Ballet dancer

When the lives of a disheartened prima ballerina and an injured hockey star collide, can their pas de deux end in an encore?

What happens when the one thing that defines you is ripped away, and you’re forced to rebuild from the ground up?

When NHL forward Liam LeClerc’s career-threatening injury refuses to heal, desperation drives him to an unlikely solution: ballet lessons from Petra Montgomery, a talented soloist overlooked due to her company’s politics.

In secret, after-hours studio sessions, Petra teaches Liam that strength comes in unexpected forms while he reminds her why she fell in love with dance, before ambition complicated everything. But when their unconventional partnership threatens both their careers, they must decide if the connection they’ve found is worth risking everything they’ve worked for.

The Swan and the Sentinel is a story that reminds us sometimes the best comebacks require learning an entirely new discipline, even if it’s performed in fifth position.
