In this breathtaking debut, Leigh Ansell has created a compelling, heartbreaking, and truly engaging story about a young girl used to flying high only to be faced with living life with her two feet firmly on the ground . . .
Seventeen-year-old Corey Ryder canâ (TM)t remember a time when she wasnâ (TM)t gliding through the air of Cirque Mystiqueâ (TM)s big top. As a trapeze artist in a traveling circus, Corey wakes up every day in a different place, buzzing for the moment she can suspend gravity during the nightâ (TM)s performance.
When the circus pulls into small-town Sherwood, California, everything seems normalâ "aside from meeting the exceptionally cute Luke Everett at a local diner. But that night, in the midst of the performance, tragedy strikes and flames overtake the tent. While Corey narrowly escapes, in the ashes of the circus pitch lies the only home sheâ (TM)s ever known.
Repeatedly thrown out of her comfort zone, Corey must learn how to push toward her future without forgetting her past, what it means to be a daughter to a mother sheâ (TM)s never known, and how to navigate the confusing magic of first love, even as she performs the high-wire act of being true to who you really are.
