Ribbon Dancer

In Riverbend, the dead don't stay quiet... and a girl's ribbons may be the only thing that can stop what's waking up.

Stevy Ribbon is just trying to make it through life in a small town where everyone knows your name-and everyone knows your problems. But when strange whispers start creeping out of the woods and the air turns cold in ways it shouldn't, Stevy realizes Riverbend is sitting on top of something buried... and it's starting to claw its way back.

His sister Emily has always been different. Not in a "quirky" way-in a how-does-she-do-that? way. Quiet. Unshakable. And when she dances with her ribbon sticks, the world seems to listen-like her movements speak a language older than fear.

Then the signs become impossible to ignore: corrupted beasts, restless dead, and a necromancer's shadow stretching toward their home. The closer the darkness gets, the more Emily's power awakens-and the more dangerous it becomes to be the one girl who might stand against it.

To save Riverbend, Stevy and Emily will have to face what's been hidden in the dark... and decide what they're willing to lose to protect each other.

Ribbon Dancer: Awakened is a thrilling YA fantasy packed with wonder, humor, heartbreak, and chills-where family is the fiercest magic of all.
