Privilege 5: PURE SIN

Privilege 5: PURE SIN

Sample it | Order it

Hey, hey—

My latest novel, PURE SIN (Privilege #5), hit the book shelves yesterday. Have you had a chance to pick it up yet? I see that some of you have from the comments. Any of you up last night, reading under the covers until you reached the very last page? What did you think of that final page? Pretty shocking, no?! Not everyone has read yet, so please include a “SPOILER ALERT” with any revealing comments. Can’t wait to hear your thoughts. You all always have the smartest things to say.

Savor each page, ladies (and gents!), because after PURE SIN, there’s only one last installment in the Privilege series . . .

"Reed" in Hollywood

Kelsey Sanders was our “Reed” last summer, when she starred in the webisode version of Private. So I thought I should let you know that she's back online in the hot new web series Hollywood is Like High School with Money.

This time around, Kelsey plays Taylor Henning, a small town girl who feels like a fish out of water working in the movie industry. The show also stars Ian Harding – the cutie who plays Ezra on Pretty Little Liars – and there's a cameo featuring Whitney Port from The City, too.

Catch up with Kelsey, and get your first look at Hollywood is Like High School with Money HERE.

VANISHED arrives today!

WE HAVE NOELLE LANGE. IF YOU GO TO THE POLICE, SHE DIES. IF YOU GO TO HER FAMILY, SHE DIES. IF YOU GO TO THE HEADMASTER, SHE DIES. YOU WILL FOLLOW OUR EVERY INSTRUCTION TO THE LETTER, OR SHE WILL DIE. THE GAME IS ON, REED BRENNAN. THE PRIZE? NOELLE’S LIFE.

Reed gets this note on the very first page of VANISHED. Talk about a rude awakening – not that Reed slept much at all after Noelle’s disappearance the night before. The first of many eerie texts Reed will receive, this fateful message leaves her fighting for Noelle’s life, and clinging to her own safety and sanity. If you were Reed, what would you do?

If you're ready for VANISHED, order your copy

HERE! I hope you love it.

The Billings Literary Society

SCANDALFor those of you who haven't read SCANDAL yet, I've got three words for you: Billings Literary Society. I won't tell you how it fits into SCANDAL, or how it all ends…but I have to confide that it's one of my favorite parts of this latest PRIVATE book. In fact, I like it so much, I think I'd like to start my own chapter of B.L.S. for PRIVATE fans like you.

What do you say…would you be interested?

<3 Kate

Not a spin-off…a club. ; )

Happy SCANDALous Day!

SCANDALYou've been so patient, and now the wait is over! Today SCANDAL is finally available wherever books are sold in the U.S.

Will the Billings Girls stick together? What's next for Reed and Josh? Does everyone's favorite girl from Croton, Pennsylvania have what it takes to start a secret society? SCANDAL has all the answers. I hope you enjoy it!




If you're ready for SCANDAL, you can order your copy in the PRIVATE Shop. As always, I can't wait to hear what you think, but please use SPOILER alerts when posting about things that others may not have read yet. Thanks!

Poor SCANDALized Reed

SCANDALThe next time you're feeling like the weight of the world is on your shoulders, I hope it eases your mind to think that Reed knows exactly how you feel. When SCANDAL arrives on 3/9, she'll have her hands full trying to keep the Billings Girls together as they're scattered across campus. She'll also be forced to deal with Josh and Ivy, up close and personal. And then there are Reed's unexpected St. Barths' souvenirs: her long distance “friendship” with Upton, and her newest classmate, Sawyer. If you were Reed, which SCANDALous item would you deal with first?

SCANDAL arrives on 3/9. If you're ready, you can order your copy in the PRIVATE Shop. I can't wait to hear what you think!

Can You Be a Billings Girl Without Billings House?

SCANDALThose of you who've read SUSPICION know that what was once the most envied house on campus has since been reduced to nothing but rubble. It was the place where every Easton girl wanted to live, but it was much more than an exclusive address to Noelle and Reed. In a way, Billings had become synonymous with it's elite occupants. It was the place to be, and they were the girls who held the key. So…now that the castle is no more, are the pretty, privileged girls who called it home still royalty? Or have they just become as common and vulnerable as the rest of the prep school peasants? You tell me!

SCANDAL arrives on 3/9. While you're waiting, take a peek at Chapter One.
