Are You Ready?

by Alex Sauer

It’s the start of her junior year of college and Madison just wants to go abroad to Spain with her bestie, Francesca, and forget about the last year. But she can’t stop thinking about the death of her father or her old relationship with Milo. If things weren’t complicated enough: Milo is studying in Oxford, England. Madison and Francesca’s favorite boy band, The Tourists, are touring in Europe. (And Madison may or may not have accidentally met Riley Artledge, the heartthrob of the band!) AND...Miguel, the Spanish hottie, won’t stop flirting with Madison. It’s no wonder Madison can’t protect her heart or stay sane. Follow Madison through her trip through Europe and chant along to The Tourists. Are you ready?

About the author

Alex Sauer sometimes calls herself a writer when she is not moody. She published her first play, Falling Love With Your GBF, in 2018 and now has a growing collection of works. She can’t control her writing style so she sometimes publishes a poem or two. Look for her upcoming young adult series, The Tourists. If you like One Direction and all things melodramatic, you will probably love this new series. When she is not writing in a café, Alex is working and working some more at one of many jobs. She sometimes takes a pause to give her corgi, Daisy, all the belly rubs in the world. She currently is the resident playwright at the Pharmacy Theatre and a contributor to the Paragon Press.


She is a graduate of Franklin & Marshall College where she majored in History and Spanish (which is probably why she won’t stop writing about Valencia and café con leches). She is currently pursuing a M.A. in Creative Writing at Southern New Hampshire University. She is also a proud alumna of Milton Hershey School, which is located in Hershey, PA. Yes, it smelled like chocolate sometimes. And yes, you should buy Hershey’s chocolate because it supports 2,000 plus kids with a safe place to live, great education, and scholarship. She prides herself on being originally from the Berkshires in Massachusetts, even though she has been a resident of Pennsylvania for all of her adult life (so far).


She hopes you enjoy her writing and hopes it makes you laugh as much as it makes her laugh.
