But Natalie is not your typical Brayden heroine and First Position doesn’t have the banter I grew to know and love in the Soho Loft series, and I couldn’t be happier. There are things I’ve come to expect from her writing style, plot construction, and characters.
It’s no secret that I’m a big fan of Melissa Brayden’s books or that Kiss the Girl is one of my favourite romances. Their character arcs were one of the greatest strengths of this book because they were fully explored and led to a satisfying conclusion. Natalie is all fire and passion and Ana is all skill and drive, but each helps the other to grow in ways that make them stronger as individuals and interesting as a couple. There’s something very fun about an opposites-attract story, especially when it’s done as well as First Position. As they prepare for the company’s new show, they come to know each other better, but is it possible they could be more than rivals and coworkers? The Characters The more time they spend together, the more Natalie sees that Ana may not be the ice queen everyone says she is, and instead has given up a social life to focus on her career. When the New York City Ballet makes an offer she can’t refuse, Natalie finds herself face to face with her old schoolmate, Ana, who isn’t any friendlier now than she was all those years ago. Years after walking away from the School of American Ballet, Natalie Frederico is full of raw talent, getting her joy from putting together independent shows that mix dance with other media. Getting the job is bittersweet, however, because it comes with the feedback that she needs to add feeling to her technically flawless dancing. After working her way up the ranks and spending five years as a soloist, she’s waiting to find out if the coveted role of principal dancer is finally hers.
First Position by Melissa Brayden is romance at its finest with an opposites attract theme that kept me engaged the whole way through.Īnastasia Mikhelson knows it’s her time with the New York City Ballet.
