About This Book

A brilliantly warm-hearted NEW book from Brooke Blurton and Melanie Saward, a follow-up to A Good Kind of Trouble.

Things don't always go to plan. I should be at the Australian Ballet School. But instead, here I am, boarding and going to school hundreds of kilometres away from home, but I feel even further away from my dreams. At least I've got Jamie ... that part's deadly. Until she finds out my secret.

Stella is nervous about another new city, a new school and new friends. Her love for ballet - and Jamie - pulls her forward, but fear threatens to drag her back home.

It's only when she thinks she's lost everything that Stella starts to see what she's been missing. Maybe she can shine - in class, on stage and in her own story - and make her family and Jamie proud.

Brooke Blurton, proud Noongar-Yamatji woman and Australian TV star, and Melanie Saward, proud Bigambul and Wakka Wakka woman and acclaimed author, have created a heartfelt story of friendship, rivalry, ballet, footy, secrets, and believing in a future big enough to hold all your dreams.
