About this ebook

He's haunted by nightmares.

She's hiding behind her smile.

A cursed melody dooms them both.


Ever since returning from the war, Jonas has been plagued by nightmares. When he meets the vivacious dancer Sophie, he’s drawn to her like a moth to a flame. Her laughter alone banishes the terrors of his dreams. But behind that smile lies a secret.

Every night, Sophie follows an irresistible melody into the night, only to return in the morning exhausted, feverish, and with her shoes broken a little more. Worried, Jonas sets out to solve the mystery of her midnight dances. But the intoxicating nightmare he slips into may just be darker than the ones that haunt him.


The award-winning dark fairy-tale retelling of Grimm’s “The Twelve Dancing Princesses”. Now in English.

A very dark novel, almost nightmarish. In almost true Grimms style Janna brought the characters alive. Jonas was reliving his war experiences, triggered by almost anything. With his extensive PTSD Sophie was his only light. Unfortunately Sophie was caught up in the prince's curse,dancing every night at the club DeMelodie until her ballet shoes were in tatters. A horrible twist will reveal the truth. Not for the feint hearted. I received a complimentary copy from the author and leave this review freely. Thank you Janna
