SPLIT BY A KISS is published by Corgi Books at Random House Children's Books.

It's the story of a British girl who goes to live in the USA for a year and faces some big challenges and choices, mostly to do with snogging a certain ultra-hot boy. After the kiss, she splits into two girls and goes down two paths at the same time. On one path she is in with the coolest of the cool, and on the other she... isn't.

Does either route lead to happiness? And how will she ever be herself again?

Buy direct from Random House. Or you can order Split by a Kiss on Amazon, or at Waterstone's, or Blackwell's, or anywhere that sells books. (You can get free worldwide delivery from The Book Depository.)
