Then Marcus is forced to pay the price for someone else's lies as the mystery around Ellie's disappearance starts to become horribly clear. So its a joy to me to now be the author of the novels The Ballad of Dinah Caldwell, How We Fall, and upcoming others, as well as Godzilla Girls, a F/F. She lives in Austin, Texas, with her family. She is currently an editor with Dovetail Fiction and founder of the Breakthrough Writers’ Boot Camp. But something isn't right about this stranger, and Jackie's suspicions about the new girl's secrets only drive the wedge deeper between Jackie and Marcus-and deepens Jackie's despair. Kate Brauning is the author of How We Fall (Simon Pulse), which was shortlisted for the Killer Nashville Silver Falchion Best YA Novel award.


The plan is to fall out of love, and, just as she hoped he would, Marcus falls for the new girl in town. Swamped with guilt and the knowledge that acting on her love for Marcus would tear their families apart, Jackie pushes her cousin away. Now Ellie has been missing for months, and the police, fearing the worst, are searching for her body. Her friendship with him has turned into something she can't control, and he's the reason Jackie lost track of her best friend, Ellie, who left for.no one knows where. Ever since Jackie moved to her uncle's sleepy farming town, she's been flirting way too much-and with her own cousin, Marcus.
