The amazing eighth private book!, 16 Feb 2009
No sooner has Reed Brennan stepped foot on Easton campus when Detecive Hauer, the 'king of bad news' comes to tell her that new evidence has come into the case of Cheyenne Martin's death- and it was definetly murder.
And the day doesn't get any better when Reed arrives at Billings to find out that Noelle has kicked her out after seeing the video of her and Dash. There was a vote for Reed being kicked out of Billings beofre she came back, and only Astrid, Constance and Sabine stayed on Reed's side.
As if things couldn't get any worse, Reed discovers that her room at Pemberley is right next to Ivy Slade's.
Life couldn't get any worse, right?
Wrong.
Just because Reed is now in Pemberley, doesn't her stalker has given up- in fact, she's about to get the scariest 'gifts' yet. And seeing as Reed took over the Billings presidency when Cheyenne died, she's starting to look like the no.1 suspect in her murder.
Reed will have to figure out not only who killed Cheyenne, but also who her stalker is, before it's too late...

Life couldn't possibly get any worse for Reed Brennan, could it?
Welcome to book eight of the PRIVATE series by Kate Brian.
When we left the Girls of Billings in AMBITION, Reed had just pulled of the coup of the year with the fundraiser to save the school, only to have her reputation smeared across campus via the technology of cell phones. Someone had caught her 5-minute make-out session with Dash McCafferty, Noelle Lange's on-again/off-again boyfriend.
Reed has just returned to Easton Academy after Thanksgiving break, and her first night back, she receives the shocking news that the Girls of Billing have voted her out. It wasn't a unanimous vote, but still, majority rules, and the only home she's ever wanted at Easton is no longer hers. She now knows how far Noelle will go to get back at anyone that crosses her.
So Reed finds herself in a disgustingly ugly small single in, dare she think it, Pemberly? But Reed packs her stuff and, with the help of her few remaining friends from Billings, moves. But it gets even worse. For her next-door neighbor is none other than her ex-boyfriend Josh Hollis' new girlfriend, Ivy Slade. But Reed isn't beaten yet. She's bound and determined to get back into Billings and clear her name of everything. Granted, she can't undo the error with Dash, but she can find out who is responsible for Cheyenne's death and who's been stalking her.
Yes, even with moving into Pemberly, Reed is still finding mysterious items of Cheyenne's in her room. Things keep appearing but Reed refuses to think she could possibly have anything to do with it. She keeps telling everyone that she had nothing to gain by murdering Cheyenne. Cromwell was already expelling her, so there was no reason to make it worse on Cheyenne.
REVELATION will let the reader finally know the truth of Cheyenne's death. As Reed investigates and gets closer to the truth, people that she thought she couldn't count on come to her aid. And those she thought were the ones she could always count on may turn out to be the ones she should've been watching out for all along.
Readers have to wait until February 2009 to find out the continuation of Reed and the aftereffects of the Easton Academy Holiday Dinner. However, those needing their fix of Easton Academy have the LAST CHRISTMAS: THE PRIVATE PREQUEL to look forward to on October 7, 2008. And the new series with Ariana Osgood (isn't she locked up?) is due out on December 30, 2008.

If you thought the previous books had been good, 17 Feb 2009
Absolutely amazing.
I love the prequels to this book, but this one by far outdose them; and leaves a cliff hanger that will drive you mad. (Well it's driving me mad anyway!)
