Top-Selling Self-Published New Adult Titles Coming to Simon & Schuster UK

From Steph Campbell, who has sold more than 75k copies of her books to date, are two companion romances, Grounding Quinn and Delicate, both to be published on 6th December 2012. In Grounding Quinn, eighteen-year-old Quinn MacPherson starts what she thinks is a summer fling with Ben, the hot new boy in town. But when Ben tells Quinn he's in love with her, she does what comes naturally: pushes him away, breaking his heart before he can break hers. Ben isn't prepared to let go that easily, but will he be able to persuade Quinn to open herself up and allow him in to her life... and her heart? In Delicate, Quinn's best friend Sydney Pierce has her own boy troubles when she becomes caught up in a dangerous love triangle with her boyfriend, Trevor, and the gorgeous and charming new boy, Grant. And as Trevor's jealousy takes an intense and dark turn, Sydney is forced into a dangerous position where her safety is as much at stake as her happiness.
