The Elemental Masters isn't exactly a series, more some vaguely inter-related books. Characters don't (or very rarely) carry over from book to book.
The series is interesting from its use of fairytale motifs as each is (sometimes very loosely) based on traditional tales. Unless I'm totally confused, this would be 'Puss in Boots'.
Ninette is an impoverished ballerina who is fired from her position and is encouraged by a talking cat to follow his instructions. These lead her to across France and the Channel to Blackpool. There she impersonates Nina, a famous Russian ballerina. However the 'real' Nina discovers finds out and arrives to seek revenge. The 'real' Nina has been possessed by an Earth Elemental with the ability to absorb humans and thereafter take their shape.
