Kiss and Make Up

Seniors #13

by Eileen Goudge

Petite, wisecracking Karen Waverly has been at odds with Jeff Becker since second grade. They avoid each other whenever possible, and at Glenwood High their incompatibility is legendary. — When Karen's mom, a widow, and Jeff's divorced father begin to date, both Karen and Jeff are horrified. Being neighbors is bad enough! Determined to prevent a catastrophe, they become allies in Operation Split--a program devised to keep their parents apart.

But Operation Split throws them together a lot, and while the sparks still fly, a friendship grows. When Karen realizes that she's fallen in love with her arch enemy, she panics. Will Jeff laugh at her change of heart, or will he welcome the chance to KISS AND MAKE UP?

About the author

I began writing at the age of eight and wrote my way through the lean years before I found success as New York Times' bestselling author with my first novel GARDEN OF LIES. To date I have published 19 novels and a cookbook. Every life experience I've weathered has found its way into my novels in one form or another: bad exes, births, deaths, divorces, romances, and even true crime. My heroines are like me: tough cookies who don't crumble.

My latest novel, Book One of my Gold Creek series, ALL THEY NEED TO KNOW, is the story of a woman fleeing her abusive ex who finds refuge in a small California mountain town, where she's befriended by a group of women who call themselves The Tattooed Ladies and reinvents herself as a police sketch artist. Kyra "draws lines to stop crimes," as they say in the biz, never imagining she'll one day be forced to confront the biggest criminal of all: her ex.

I'm married to former entertainment reporter Sandy Kenyon and the mother of two grown children. We live in Sacramento, California, where we remodeled a 1940's house for which I was the on-site project manager. Fortunately, multi-tasking is my superpower, so I was able to write a book and supervise a home remodel at the same time. The latter is sure to find its way into a future book. Follow me on Instagram and Facebook to see pics of my home remodel and other adventures.
