Larissa, the virgin heroine of Dancing For Her Demon, is a
ballet dancer. Although she doesn’t dance professionally, she is trained in
ballet and continues to dance. I’m not a dancer but I do love ballet.
The first ballet the hubby and I saw was the classic Swan
Lake. The hubby gave me tickets to the ballet as an early birthday present. We
were both working crazy hours and multiple jobs, and the only time we could
find to attend a performance was during the week, after our day job. We were
exhausted but we dressed up, ate a fast slice of pizza for dinner, and headed
to the ballet.
We settled into the cheap seats, in the last row, right
against the wall. Once the ballet started, the dancing mesmerized me. I found
the lack of singing and talking a bit eerie (I’m a writer, my life revolves
around words) but the movement was amazing.
Half an hour into the ballet, my dear exhausted hubby was
leaning forward in his chair, snoring loudly. I was a little embarrassed until
I looked down the row. Every second attendee was sleeping! I caught the eye of
the ballet loving man beside my hubby and we shared a laugh because his
boyfriend was fast asleep also. My hubby later told me it was the best sleep
he’d had in months!
Once the hubby woke up, he had me in stitches, laughing
(also a no-no at the ballet). The core story is a Prince falls in love with a
white swan. My hubby’s comment? “These interspecies romances never work out.”
The Prince is tricked into mistaking a black swan for his white swan. My
hubby’s comment? “And you think I don’t pay attention. His swan is a completely
different color and he didn’t notice!”

Although Larissa is a virgin, she knows exactly whom she wants. She wants Julian. Her father's right-hand demon, however, still views her as a child. Determined to provoke the rage demon's darker passions, Larissa struts on stage at a local strip club and shows him how grown up she really is.
Julian has spent years proving he is the right mate for Larissa. He has one task left. He must go to a strip club and subdue a rival demon. Then Larissa takes the stage, the audience goes wild, and all of Julian's careful planning is blasted to bits by the heat of desire.

ReplyDeleteWhen I was in college, the Trocks (Les Ballets Trockadero de Monte Carlo) came and performed.
ReplyDeleteIt's impossible to take a dying swan seriously after you've seen a male dancer, in the classic ballerina costume and on full pointe, littering the stage with moulting feathers as he dances the classic choreography.
