Clearly I'm all excited about my two book series, PRIVATE and PRIVILEGE. If you like a good, moody mystery mixed with angst and romance and lots of glamour, I think you'll really like what the books have in store. There's also that intriguing private school mystique with a dash of romance and some lifestyles-of-the-rich-and-the-famous. So much to explore . . . . I'm having a great time writing the books, and I hope you'll have an even better time reading them. Can't wait to hear what you think!
PRIVATE The bestselling series by Kate Brian
Tradition, Honor, Excellence...and secrets so dark they're almost invisible
Fifteen-year-old Reed Brennan wins a scholarship to Easton Academy -- the golden ticket away from her pill-popping mother and run-of-the-mill suburban life. But when she arrives on the beautiful, tradition-steeped campus of Easton, everyone is just a bit more sophisticated, a bit more gorgeous, and a lot wealthier than she ever thought possible. Reed realizes that even though she has been accepted to Easton, Easton has not accepted her. She feels like she's on the outside, looking in.
Until she meets the Billings Girls.
They are the most beautiful, intelligent, and intensely confident girls on campus. And they know it. They hold all the power in a world where power is fleeting but means everything. Reed vows to do whatever it takes to be accepted into their inner circle.
Reed uses every part of herself -- the good, the bad, the beautiful -- to get closer to the Billings Girls. She quickly discovers that inside their secret parties and mountains of attitude, hanging in their designer clothing-packed closets the Billings Girls have skeletons. And they'll do anything to keep their secrets private.

hi Kate Brian, i cant wait to read Perfect Mistake,i only wish i can watch the Private Series Episodes, i have read all the books including your latest one, i live in canada i wish i can watch it soon
I'm super duper excited about the release of Suspicion! I've been a Private follower since the beginning and you just outdo yourself each new book that comes along! You always keep me on the edge of my seat wondering what trouble Reed will get herself into next!! Thanks for all you do!
Am I like the ONLY one who didn't to read the preview for Suspicion??!? I'm so bummed!! And I'm kinda disappointed in the web-series b/c it's like they disregarded the books and turned it into something totally different. And it kinda feels like you're not as amped about the Private series like you used to be before Privileged came out... I love you!! You're like the best writer ever and I ordered Suspicion so it should be getting here in a couple of hours!!!! Can't wait to read it!!
first off let me say i think you're an awesome author and i think if you made private into a movie it could be bigger than twilight!!! anyway i am very upset because i love the series and cant watch the webisodes!! i am in the navy and stationed in Okinawa, Japan! i really feel like i am missing out on the biggest thing in private series! but at least i have a the new book to look forward too!!
So I am an avid reader of your books, and I completely love them. However, that being said... I've noticed a writing style changed with use of vocabulary and Reed's outlook on things. I understand that she's tired but she's less eloquent and a little bit TOO ordinary. None the less, I absolutely love your books and I couldn't put SUSPICION down. But when I finished it, I was completely shocked and I literally cannot wait for the next book in the series. Any way to make it come out sooner?
Your books are amazing and I hope you keep them going!
Hey Kate, Just wanted to say hello & I can not wait to read Suspicion. After that excerpt I'm excited to find out what happens to Reed. New book & new Private episode, what a great Tuesday :) Love the actors though it is a bit odd seeing all the events unfold differantly from the book.
Hey, Private is definatley very good book series. I live in a tiny town and trust me my public school is nothing like Easton! Sure, we are dramatic but not that bad! Well congrats to a great series! Keep writing I hate it when it gets good and then people quit!
Hi, Kate! I finished Beautiful Disaster on Sunday. I love your twisted endings! It's always a cliff hanger. I'm due to recieve Suspicion any day now...I'm so excited! I also pre-ordered Perfect Mistake! I love your work! Keep up the great job!
i have been a die hard private reader since it first came out and i was so excited when you made the private series. however, its nothing like the books. i know everything cant be the same but there are soooo many things different. the characters dont fit their descriptions, and what about glass licker? i love love love the books but the series was a let down :(
