- One day sheâs going to move to NYC to become a professional ballerina.Â
- Olivia Beck is her best friend.
- Tyler Stanley is the boy of her dreams.
To make her dreams come true sheâs going to have to stay focused, work hard and get rid of that pesky voice in her head that says sheâs not good enough. But with a best friend like Olivia it canât be that hard, right?
Olivia Beck canât stand Hannahâs perfectly charmed life. When the hottest guy in school, one Tyler Stanley, asks her out, Olivia just canât say no. So what if her supposed best friend called dibs in 6th grade?
Toe to Toe is a contemporary YA with a ballet twist including a slow-burn romance, frenemies that still have your back, bunheads, blisters, mild language and honest conversations about bodies and sexuality. Hannahâs story will continue in Head to Head, Book 2 of the On Pointe series. Leap into the pages of Penelope Freedâs On Pointe series today!
Penelope Freed lives in the Pacific Northwest where you can find her learning how to drive in the rain, walking her dog and making a mess in the kitchen. Her daughter thinks sheâs a little bit bonkers and really hates it when she dances embarrassingly in public. Which she does, often.
After a lifetime in the ballet world, Penelope decided to start writing down the stories in her head instead of narrating her ballet classes with themâher former students are very thankful for this decision. Now, Penelope writes stories about dreamers, just like she is, who are willing to do whatever it takes to make those dreams come true.
