Dance While You Can — Claire Harrison

"A dancer is married only to her art."

Carrie Moore, the Manhattan Ballet Company's beautiful and brilliant prima ballerina, believed completely in that maxim. Love interfered with concentration and undermined a dancer's discipline.

Yet there were times when she felt as if life was passing her by somehow; she envied the freedom of her flamboyant roommate Bonnie, who could eat as much as she liked, keep late hours and fall in and out of love with carefree abandon

Carrie had fallen in love, just once, on a moonlit night in Florida. But she knew her career depended on one thing: Alex Taylor must never have any part in her life!

Hero: Alex Taylor
Heroine: Carrie Moore
