In TEEN QUEENS AND HAS-BEENS, Lia has everything- a glamorous home and family, good friends, great looks and brains – and has remained kind and unpretentious. But when she pulls the school heart throb in a game of Truth, Dare, Kiss or Promise, she alienates ‘teen queen’ Kaylie, who starts a bullying campaign against her.

Cathy Hopkins lives in North London with her husband and three mad cats. It took her until she was 35 to decide what she wanted to do when she grew up (be a writer), so she has had a variety of other jobs. She trained as a secondary school teacher but instead of teaching, joined a rock and roll band, "Driving Rock and the Rockettes", as one of the Rockettes. She’s also worked as an occupational therapist, a scriptwriter, a newspaper reviewer on Sky News, a script reader for the comedy unit at the BBC and an aromatherapist.
