The Midnight Dancers
Product Code: BK1737Splitting your life between night and light is a dangerous dance… But why live in the light, when the night seems so irresistibly intriguing?
Rachel Durham, 18, is tired of her father and stepmother’s staid morality and pristine prosperity. The summer of her senior year, she’s more than ready for a walk on the wild side, and the door opens - literally - when she and her eleven sisters and stepsisters discover a secret passageway out of their historic home on the Chesapeake Bay. At night, boys in boats and a forbidden island beckon from the shore, and Rachel and her sisters jump aboard. The night becomes Rachel’s true world, and her daytime life becomes a disposable mask.
Rachel's puzzled father tries to tow his daughters back into line by enlisting the help of Paul, a med student with a seasonal job juggling at the town festival. But Paul realizes that simply blocking the girls from their midnight parties isn’t going to solve the family’s problems. So he embarks on a risky balancing act to gain the girls’ trust – and to make Rachel see that splitting her life between night and light is a dangerous dance.
Based on the Grimm's fairy tale, "The Twelve Dancing Princesses", this summer romance with a suprising twist is the fourth book in the Fairy Tale Novel series by Regina Doman.
Age 16 and up. 236 pages. Paperback.
