Are you a Good Girl? Do you... -Allow your parents to micromanage your life so you'll get into the "right" college (aka Dad's alma mater)? -Sign up for a gazillion after-school activities to be more "well rounded" (though at this point, you're so round, you may roll away!) -Hang out with fashion-obsessed Populars—who don't accept anyone who doesn't embrace the color pink? -Date rich, obnoxious jocks like Brent Baker III—who are so cheesy you can't stomach them without crackers? Or a Bad Girl? Do you... -Meet new cool people—like the headmaster's punk-rock daughter Starr? -Pierce random body parts (ok, just your belly button—but still!) and hope your parents don't notice? -Date an uber-hot sk8er boy from the wrong side of town—though your parents say "No way!"? -Fall in love with the sk8er—in a tragic Romeo and Juliet (with text messaging) kind of way? Good Girl Dawn Miller is about to find out just how good it is to be bad!

Mari Mancusi grew up where the north wind meets the sea (otherwise known as Massachusetts), but has since made her home in the great state of Texas, mostly due to her love of summer. (And tacos.) A former Emmy Award winning TV news producer, today she is the author of more than two-dozen books for kids, teens, and adults, mostly of the sci-fi/fantasy variety. In addition to writing, Mari loves traveling, video games, and cosplaying. She is also Mom to an eight year old Frozen superfan who, when recently asked by her teacher to describe her hero answered: “My Mom!” (Okay, fine, she said Kristin Bell.) You can find Mari online at www.marimancusi.com. She knows several Samanthas.
