Skylar was the first FMC that got me back in front of my computer after I released part one of No Fraternizing to quiet results the year prior. I knew very little about self-publishing then, but I knew I loved writing what I loved to read.

I never gave her a last name, and it just feels wrong to do it now. She was the around-the-way girl who had left Brooklyn but returned and found that everything was different—including her childhood friend, Noah.
