Penelope Freed

Toe to Toe - On Pointe Penelope Freed

16 year-old Hannah O'Brian knows 3 things for certain:

One day she's going to move to NYC to become a professional ballerina. Olivia Beck is her best friend. Tyler Stanley is the boy of her dreams.




To make her dreams come true she's going to have to stay focused, work hard and get rid of that pesky voice in her head that says she's not good enough. But with a best friend like Olivia it can't be that hard, right?




Olivia Beck can't stand Hannah's perfectly charmed life. When the hottest guy in school, one Tyler Stanley, asks her out, Olivia just can't say no. So what if her supposed best friend called dibs in 6th grade?










Author's Note: This contemporary YA with a ballet twist includes a slow-burn romance, frenemies that still have your back, bunheads, blisters, mild language and honest conversations about bodies and sexuality.
