Our Next Dance
Born and raised in Plymouth, Minnesota, Becca Cooper is a skilled ballet dancer who struggles with a secret that could shatter her life. Plagued by debilitating visions of a ballerina named Cassandra, the seventeen-year-old begins to discover her truth in the pages of a dusty old diary. When Becca realizes there is more to her crush, Caleb, than meets the eye, they team up to turn back the hands of time and seek justice for an incomprehensible crime. This enchanting story alludes to the supernatural but hits the ground running with so much suspense and emotion that the dusting of paranormal activity is only a delicious bonus!

Back Story
Years ago, this story started as 2 books and was originally titled “My Next Dance” a metaphor for my next life. My BFF, Sarah Roberts, did the original amazing covers.
About 5 years ago, I rewrote the story as 1 novel. It’s no secret why I based the story in Minnesota and squeezed in a little Siesta Key visit; but the actual motivation came the week after I finished reading the Twilight series. I guess I just didn’t want that feeling to end so I got busy writing my own story.
