Come and mend your broken hearts here. In this retelling of the classic tale "The Twelve Dancing Princesses," the eldest princess must fight to save her family—and her heart—from an ancient dark magic within the palace walls. "Full of mystery, lush settings, and fully orbed characters, Dixon's debut is both suspenseful and rewarding."—ALA Booklist

Just when Azalea should feel that everything is before her—beautiful gowns, dashing suitors, balls filled with dancing—it's taken away. All of it. And Azalea is trapped. The Keeper understands. He's trapped, too, held for centuries within the walls of the palace. So he extends an invitation.

Every night, Azalea and her eleven sisters may step through the enchanted passage in their room to dance in his silver forest, but there is a cost. The Keeper likes to keep things. Azalea may not realize how tangled she is in his web until it is too late. "Readers who enjoy stories of royalty, romance, and magic will delight in Dixon's first novel."—Publishers Weekly

I am now reading the book and it is suspensful!! I recomend it to anyone who likes romantic and action filled books!! Just warning you that if you are under age 8 you should not read this!! xoxo, ilovelife

this is my favorite book ever!! i have a similar story to katnissll. i read it two years ago, then i moved. i really wanted to read it again bcuz it was etched into my mind but i couldn't remember the title. i searched for hours and finally i found it!! i recently reread it and it was SO GOOD! everything about it is good! it has romance, adventure, fantasy, and twists and turns you would never expect. WAY better than the original 12 dancing princesses fairytale. i recommend it for everyone!! ever since i read it, i've loved the name azalea and i think i'm going to name my kid azalea and hope she's as sweet and amazing as the character in this book. the names are so creative and lord bradford... i recommend this book for everyone!!! it shoud be turned into a movie! i can totally imagine this as a movie and there are scenes you can picture on the silver screen. if the fanbase grows, maybe it will be turned into a movie!!

This book is amazing! I read it 2 years ago and I still remember it =. I love the romance, and the dancing, and the flower names, in fact I think the barbie company riped the idea of the twelve dancing princesses off the ti sbook!

THIS IS MY FAVORITE BOOK OF ALL TIME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

this book is cool because its about modern princesses that discover a secret chamber in their bedroom, where they are free to dance!
