Bio:
Nikki fell in love with books at a young age and looked
forward to reading a book with her mom before bed every night. It was only a
matter of time until her love of reading turned into a love of putting those
words onto the page. Now, her days are spent helping those overcoming opiate
addiction and her nights are spent writing. She lives in Minnesota with her
husband and two stubborn cats.

Back Cover Blurb:
The Los Angeles Conservatory for the
Arts is supposed to be a new beginning for Sadie Bryant. Moving across the
country is exactly what she needs to escape the gossip surrounding her injury,
the devastating betrayal of her ex-partner, and to rebuild her career as a solo
dancer.
When the school announces that the annual Fall Showcase, a performance that secures a spot studying in London, will now require each dancer to have a partner, Sadie’s fresh start is a nightmare. Now she has to dance with Luke Morrison, the school womanizer with a big ego. Sadie doesn’t know how to trust Luke enough to dance with him after her last partner left her broken, but Luke is determined to change that.
Then, The Hit List comes out. A game of sexual conquest where guys get points for all the girls they hook up with—and it seems like every guy at the school is playing.
The girl worth the most points? Sadie.

EXCERPT:
The first notes of the music start
and I do my best to look like I’m waiting on a park bench for the love of my
life. It’s not a stretch to be attracted to Luke. He walks toward me and I
launch myself off the chair, running full speed at him, jumping into his arms
at the last possible second. His touch is warm against my leg and back. He
holds me tight, tighter than he’s held me in rehearsal before. I want to
believe it’s because he might like me as more than a partner, but really it’s
probably so he won’t drop me.
He spins me around once and tries
to disentangle my limbs from his body. I don’t want to let go. He sets me back
down on the ground and keeps me at arms length while I attempt to grab his
hand. He pulls it away effortlessly every time.
This is supposed to be the part when he breaks up with me.
But I can see him working hard to hide his emotions. Like maybe he doesn’t want
to let me go, either. But that’s not part of the dance.
He stops dancing. “What’s wrong?”
“I could ask you the same thing. You
don’t really look like you’re about to break up with me.”
He stops the music and crosses his
arms over his chest. “Well, you don’t
really look like you’re in love, so we’re even.”
