Here's the cover for CRAVING U and the Book Description... I seriously can't wait to share this story with all of you.
I hope you enjoy it!!

You can't run away from what you are. No matter where you go, your feelings are going to follow you....
Marika, a teenager from the countryside, has known Matteo since they were toddlers... and has been in love with him for almost as long. But while he's a gorgeous, athletic, popular guy with sky-blue eyes and a smile that makes your mind go blank and your mouth go dry, she is just like so many other girls her age: uncomfortable about her looks and her weight – neither super-skinny nor blonde like the cheerleader types – and certain that Matteo is out of her league.
They have grown up with very few cares in the world in the midst of vineyards in the rolling Berici Hills, rocked gently by the rhythms of school and friends. But hundreds of miles away in the big city, in an elegant old building downtown, their destiny is about to be changed from behind a luxurious mahogany desk. Matteo's departure for Milan to follow his dreams will throw everything off balance, thrusting new, tempting situations into these two teenagers' experiences of life: unexplored worlds of pro sports and its opportunities and sacrifices, contracts and huge paychecks, rock 'n' roll, emotions, teenage trials and tribulations, awkward relationships, and memories as cutting as a sword slicing through tofu.
When another guy fills that emptiness in Marika's life, every move, every thought, every feeling gets amplified and everything gets more complicated, and more intense.
