About The Standout (Unabridged)

First came the anonymous email: “Dump your fiancé or lose everything.” Then came the website: RottenRobin.com—dedicated to destroying her life. Robin Bricker thought joining The Standout—a ballet-themed fashion competition show—would be the boldest thing she’d ever do. But between her jealous co-contestants, a creepy online smear campaign, and cryptic messages dredging up secrets from her past, the real drama isn’t on camera… it’s behind the scenes. With the help of Zelda, a fierce model-dancer with secrets of her own, and Ted, her protective older brother, Robin must untangle a growing web of sabotage, betrayal, and psychological warfare. But the deeper she digs, the more Robin begins to question everything—including her memories, her loyalties, and whether she can trust herself at all. Sharp, suspenseful, and unexpectedly emotional, The Standout is a genre-bending novel about reinvention, resilience, and the terrifying freedom of leaping into the unknown. For fans of Liane Moriarty, Taylor Jenkins Reid, and readers who love their women’s fiction with a pulse-pounding twist.
