Book Description:
Fanny
doesn't want to be at The Jane Austen Academy. She intends to lay low until
graduation when she can try out for the Olympic track team. She doesn't need
friends or love. She only needs her running.
But
The Academy is in danger. In an effort to save it, Fanny joins forces with the
friends she never knew she wanted. Suddenly, Fanny finds herself center stage
in the middle of the Academy's biggest love triangle as the lead in the school
play...only this track star can't afford to break a leg.

The
last thing that the girls at the elite Jane Austen Academy need is hot guys to
flirt with. But over the summer the school has been sold, and like it or not,
the guys are coming. And it’s about to turn the Academy—and the lives of its
students—totally upside down…
The
Jane Austen Academy series are modern retellings of Jane Austen classics set at
a beachside California boarding school.

Bio:
Cecilia Gray lives in the San Francisco Bay Area where
she reads, writes and breaks for food. She also pens her biographies in the third
person. Like this. As if to trick you into thinking someone else wrote it
because she is important. Alas, this is not the case.
Cecilia has been praised for “instilling a warmth and
weight into her characters” (Romancing
The Book Reviews) and her books have been praised for being “well-written,
original, realistic and witty” (Quills & Zebras Reviews).
Her latest series of young-adult contemporary Jane
Austen retellings was named a What’s Hot pick (RT Book Reviews magazine) and is
a Best of 2012 pick (Kirkus Reviews) where it was praised for being a “unique
twist on a classic” and offering “a compelling mix of action, drama and love.”
She’s rather enamored of being contacted by readers and
