    Reed’s first glimpse at Easton Academy is enough to make her panic. What if she doesn’t belong here? She’s worked
    so hard to get into this school and get away from home, but is she good enough to even be here? She stumbles out of
    the car and bumps into a cute boy--and school suddenly looks slightly better.  Not to mention that her determination
    kicks in.

    However, nothing is easy at this new school. Work starts demanding attention and her advisor is watching closely for
    any indication that she might not be up to the Academy’s standards. Reed’s roommate talks all the time, and hanging
    with her could be social suicide. Then Reed meets the Billings Girls, and suddenly she wants to be one of them more
    than anything-- but what is she willing to do to achieve that same social status?

    Similar to THE IT GIRL novels, Kate Brian spins a fast-paced darker story where Reed is way over her head. The
    calculating Billings Girls leave you wanting to uncover their deep secrets. Now that Reed has made it into the popular
    and powerful crowd, where will INVITATION ONLY take her?
