Book Synopsis:
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.
QUOTE SET:
Fanny, on modesty: "My GPA is perfect. I work so hard! I don't get into trouble. I can still get into Stanford."
Fanny, on women's equality: "You think I don't know my felonies because I'm a girl?"
Tran, on managing expectations: "Isn't fighting a multibillion-dollar nameless conglomerate a bit much for someone with SATs coming up?"
Emma, on keeping it real: ""A date is just a date. It's not a proposal. It's not even an invitation to prom."
Tran, on why he's probably single: ""I don't do big declarations or flowers."
Author 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 hopes you'll oblige at Email or any of the following sites:

thanks for the giveaway
I love anything and everything Jane Austen, so I'm kind of eager to see how her classic tales transfer into modern stories.
