Vivian Ladoe is a liar.

Professional dance careers start early—very early. At twenty-four, she should have already established herself in a company, but she is still hoping for her big break. When Ellapond Dance Company casts her as their new principal ballerina, accepting the role means lying about her age to all her new peers and instructors. They all think she’s nineteen—including her captivating but broody duet instructor, Julian King.

As Vivian prepares for her dream role, the web of lies she spins grows. The pressure mounts as the performance approaches, leading her to accidently spill her biggest secret to Julian. With her true age eliminating the last boundary between them, Julian and Vivian run out of excuses to deny their attraction. But can their relationship ever bloom when it’s built on deceit?

Leaps & Lies is an adult sports romance featuring an age-gap, spice, and lots of ballet.
