About the Authors
J.K. Rock is the pseudonym for writing partners—and sisters-in-law—Joanne and Karen Rock. After selling some adult romances on their own, they thought it would be fun to write YA together and Camp Boyfriend was dreamed up while floating around the pool at a family party. F visit jkrock.net
A full-time eighth grade teacher, Karen Rock recently sold her first romance to Harlequin Heartwarming. Prior to her work with Harlequin, Karen published numerous YA short stories in and a YA screenplay designed for high school drama clubs. An active member of SCBWI and RWA, Karen has helped several students to publish their own work. She has a wide following as a “Cynsation” blogger on Cynthia Leitich Smith’s website. She lives in the Adirondack Mountain region with her husband, her much-appreciated beta-reader daughter, and two King Cavalier spaniels that have yet to learn the concept of “fetch” even though they’ve taught her the trick! Camp Boyfriend marks her debut as a YA novelist. Learn more about Karen at www.karenrock.com
An unapologetic romantic, Joanne Rock started writing while working toward a Masters degree in Literature at the University of Louisville, craving a creative outlet to break up her studying.

She’s also been a Romantic Times Career Achievement Nominee and multiple Reviewers’ Choice finalist. Her work has been reprinted in twenty-six countries and translated into twenty languages.
