Girls will be drawn to Leap’s frank discussion of first love, first times - sex, drinking, break-ups - and the struggle between doing what feels right and doing things to please others.ĭieses eBook enthält ein digitales Wasserzeichen und ist damit für Sie personalisiert. When a new teacher introduces her to modern dance, she gains confidence and a new sense of herself. Losing her virginity, dealing with her new understanding of her mother, and trying to re-negotiate her friendships, Natalie turns to dancing as the only certain thing in a life full of questions.

When Natalie turns to her single mom for advice, she gets a shock. The worst is that she may have lost her friendship with Sasha. Over the summer, Natalie goes from being in love and lust with Kevin to realizing that he is not the guy she thought he was. Caught up with the excitement of Kevin’s attention, their relationship quickly becomes intimate and all-consuming.

But while her mom doesn’t seem to have got the memo, Kevin, her best friend Sasha’s older brother, has. Plus, she’s just turned fifteen - a momentous age that means she’s now officially a grown-up. Natalie’s passion is dance, and she’s looking forward to a summer of perfecting her technique at dance camp. Over the course of the summer, she falls in love (or is it just lust?) with her best friend's older brother, learns her mother's big secret, and discovers a new world when a teacher introduces her to the power and freedom of modern dance. Her father lives in another city and has a new family, and her mother is increasingly distant. Fifteen-year-old Natalie uses her passion for dance to navigate the unpredictable world of older boys, moody friends, and absentee parents.
