My Dance Becomes Swordplay, Book 5
The Last Encore
He once lived for the roar of a crowd. Now an empire waits for his next move.
Aaron Vale’s allies are marching toward the capital. Behind its defenses, the old regime still holds the power to turn the empire itself against the people trying to save it.
Everything Aaron has learned must carry him through the final campaign: the discipline of an idol, the instincts of a swordsman, and the trust of people who chose to stand beside him. Liora has her own part to play, and no victory is worth reducing their future to another command from a throne.
Yet the capital holds more than the enemy. The mystery that began with a fall from a stage is approaching its answer—and with it, the possibility of returning to the life he lost.
Aaron has fought to decide who he will become. Before the last encore ends, he must face what that choice will cost.
The fifth and final book of My Dance Becomes Swordplay brings the imperial conflict, the portal mystery, and Aaron and Liora’s love story to their conclusion. Read the series in order.
