Book Review - A Midnight Dance

I had not read Joanna Davidson Politano prior to her new release, A Midnight Dance. I have, however, seen her books among so many I have enjoyed and was looking forward to trying a new-to-me author. I will now be sure to read all the others, as this one has swept me onto my toes and launched me flying in a most glorious and intriguing way.

Ella Blythe had ballet in her soul long before she was even born, but her dreams of the stage were as untouchable as the famous Ghost of Craven Street Theatre. One brief encounter with a handsome dancer ignites in her a fire that sweeps through her and demands to be fed; even though Ella knows the truth that whatever grueling punishment her body must take in the process will pale in comparison to what will happen to her heart if she allows the romance of the theatre to overtake her. In spite of her efforts to keep such tragedy from her life, Ella finds herself mirroring the story of the ghost. Only she can decide if she will be consumed by flames or dance above them.

In A Midnight Dance, Politano composes a story that sweeps the reader into the intrigue of the theater with an all consuming plot sure to thrill. Characters leap from the pages to be loved or despised, flaws held close but laid bare before us. The mystery, the passion, the desire to be known and loved at the soul-deep level keep pages flying in pursuit of the final act of this compelling performance.
