BLURB supplied by Publicist
The sheriff's son, Kellan Turner, is not the golden boy everyone
thinks he is, and Romy Grey knows that for a fact. Because no one wants to
believe a girl from the wrong side of town, the truth about him has cost her
everything-friends, family, and her community. Branded a liar and bullied
relentlessly by a group of kids she used to hang out with, Romy's only refuge
is the diner where she works outside of town. No one knows her name or her past
there; she can finally be anonymous. But when a girl with ties to both Romy and
Kellan goes missing after a party, and news of him assaulting another girl in a
town close by gets out, Romy must decide whether she wants to fight or carry
the burden of knowing more girls could get hurt if she doesn't speak up. Nobody
believed her the first time-and they certainly won't now-but the cost of her
silence might be more than she can bear.

AUTHOR INTERVIEW
What is the name of your
latest book, and if you had to summarise it in less than 20 words what would
you say?
My book is called All the Rage.
It’s about a girl who is ostracized in her community for speaking up about
being sexually assaulted.
How long does it usually
take you to write a book, from the original idea to finishing writing it?
It depends on the book—sometimes it takes me a year, sometimes it
takes me a few more than that. :)
How do you come up with
the Title and Cover Designs for your book/books? Who designed the Cover of your
books?
That also depends on the
books. My sister thought up the title for my first novel, Cracked Up to Be, and that did create a bit of a theme—all of my
book titles are phrases. My covers are designed by Lisa Marie Pompilio at St.
Martin’s Press. I love the work she does. She always creates the best possible
visual representation of my novels.
