Pemberley Ball: Dancers


While many dancers swirl, sashay and nod at each other, Miss Dunbar stands on the outskirts of the dance floor enjoying the merry movement and lively music. Little does she know that she is about to be approached by the dashing Mr. Wickham.

Is she the muse he needs to reignite his passion?

When she’s cast in superstar choreographer William Darcy’s newest work, she believes she’s one step closer to realizing her dream–until she meets him.

Tempers ignite between Elizabeth and Darcy, but he’s irresistibly drawn to the stubborn and beautiful corps de ballet dancer. Could she be the muse he needs to reignite his passion for ballet?
