Set in the glamorous, seductive world of ballet, Hamrick's erotically charged novel sees ballerina Sylvie embark on a passionate and dangerous affair that could end up costing her everything.
Dance was her obsession.
Desire was her undoing.
Sylvie Carter has broken every rule on her way to the top of her profession. But the ballet world is as unforgiving as it is ruthless. When a devastating scandal erupts, Sylvie alone is blamed, and loses everything she's ever worked for. She vows never to make the same mistake again. But when Sylvie is magnetically drawn to renowned dancer Alessandro Russo, once again her world starts to spiral.
From New York to Vienna and Paris, Sylvie is caught between the glamorous and dark side of ballet. Challenged, both professionally and personally, her ambition sparks a journey of redemption and sexual awakening as she embarks on an intense and passionate relationship that could be the making of her... or cost her everything.
First Position is the debut novel of Melanie Hamrick, a choreographer and former dancer with ABT.
