She dreams of the spotlight. But the price of fame could break her heart.

Southampton, 1934. Eighteen-year-old Bonny Burton has only ever wanted one thing — to dance. Her dazzling audition at the Palace Theatre catapults her from a banker’s daughter into the glittering, cut-throat world of the stage.

Under the stern eye of a brilliant teacher, Bonny rises from chorus girl to star performer in a battleground of ambition and jealousy, where rivals will trip you — literally — to claim their moment in the spotlight.

She soon wins the admiration of audiences and the attention of two very different men: Mickey O’Halleran, a rugged Irish boxing champion, and Rob Andrews, whose ambition for her career burns as fiercely as his hidden feelings.

As Bonny’s fame carries her to the bright lights of the West End, jealous rivals, ruthless managers and the relentless demands of performance threaten to destroy her dreams.

And when tragedy strikes, she must summon every ounce of courage to choose between the career she was born for and the chance at happiness she never expected . . .

Perfect for fans of Rosie Clarke, Lizzie Lane, Sheila Riley, Chrissie Walsh, Susanna Bavin or May Ellis.
