Clearly I'm all excited about my new book series, PRIVATE. 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.

MoviesMOVIES I'VE SEEN RECENTLY

Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull
Those who know me know I love anything Harrison Ford does. And lately I feel the same about Shia. This was still too long and boring

Sex and the City
Loved it! Made me want to go shopping.

The Other Boleyn Girl
LOVED the book. Bored by the movie.

27 Dresses
Could have been WAY better.

August Rush
Keri Russell may actaully be prettier than Jonathan Rhys Myers. But it's a close call.

Heeey Kate!
I'm sure you hear this a lot, but I absolutely LOVE the Private series! I finished Ambition 2 weeks ago, and I cannot wait until Revelation, The Private Prequel, & Privilege! I've read all the books in the Private series twice, which shows how much I love them & will never get tired of them! I was just wondering, will you ever make a sequel to Meagan Meade's Guide to the McGowan Boys? I LOVED and read the book twice also! It would be great if you did write a sequel!

i just wanted to tell you that i love all of your books oh so much, not just the private series. the next book is coming out at my busiest time of the year, so it makes me incredibly sad that i wont be able to read it as fast as i normally do. i have lent your books out to many of my friends and they all love them. thank you soo much for writing such wonderful and addicting books. i hope the series continues after eight, but when a prequel comes out that typically says the end of it, i hope that doesn't stand true for you as well. :]

thanks again, for writing and keeping me looking forward to something when the days get boring!

your wonderful!
♥ Jaime

i'm in love with your Private Collection,
so much i've shared it with all my friends and have made them addicts as well. You have really changed our lives for the better, haha.
So for that Thank you soooo much for your amazing writing, and for keeping it coming<3.

much love and best wishes,
Patricia
