To two of the best women I know—my agent Christina, and my editor Rose (as well as their fabulous teams at JRA and SMP). One day I’m going to drag you to a karaoke bar and sing the world’s sappiest version of Wind Beneath My Wings, and then you’ll know exactly how much your support and expertise mean to me. (And will no doubt be really embarrassed by it.)
To the wonderful Haylee from Pan Macmillan Australia—the best mum a book baby can have.
To my incredible husband, who works tirelessly so that I can sit on my butt for hours every day and write. You’re my Ethan, sweetie. I adore you endlessly.
And to my boys, Special K and Doctor X—you guys make everything worthwhile. Not just these books, but life. I love you more than words can express. (So norty, but no twubble.)
And finally, to every single person who has read these books and taken the characters to heart—whether you be friends or strangers, bloggers or just lovers of words—I’m so grateful for you taking this journey with me. I truly love you more than Ethan loves Cassie, and that’s one helluva lot. I wish you all a spectacular and joyous Happy Ever After.

Bad Romeo
While performing the greatest love story of all time, they discovered one of their own . . .
Cassie Taylor was just another good girl acting student. Ethan Holt was the bad boy on campus. Then one fated casting choice for Romeo and Juliet changed it all. Like the characters they were playing onstage, Cassie and Ethan's epic romance seemed destined. Until it ended in tragedy when he shattered her heart.
Now they've made it to Broadway where they're reunited as romantic leads once again – and their passionate scenes force them to confront the heartbreaking lows and pulse-pounding highs of their intense college affair. For Ethan, losing Cassie was his biggest regret – and he's determined to redeem himself. But for Cassie, even though Ethan was her first and only great love, he hurt her too much to ever be trusted again. The trouble is, when it comes to love, sometimes it's the things that aren't good for us that are the most irresistible.
Don't miss the intoxicating romance beloved by more than two million fans online.
