The Real Thing: A Rouge Contemporary Romance

In this electrifying novel from Cassie Mae, two close friends surprise themselves by shifting from platonic love to sexual attraction.

Eric Matua has one friend - his best friend and childhood sweetheart, who needs a place to stay for the summer.

Mia Johnson has thousands of friends - who live in her computer. When she starts receiving supersweet messages from a stranger who thinks she’s someone else, Mia begins to believe that real love is possible outside her virtual world.

When the two friends become roommates, Mia finds herself falling harder than she ever thought she could. As her advances are continually spurned, Mia splits her time between Eric and her computer. But she soon realizes she’s about to lose the only real thing she’s ever had...

Friday Night Alibi was a brilliant, lovely summer read. It was lighthearted, funny, and so sweet. . . . My rating: 5 Roses.

A fun, funny, and fantastic story, this is one you will read in a day, and pick up to re-read again the next.”

—— Kelley Lynn, author of Fraction of Stone

I loved this book. Chase had me right away, from his first smart-ass comment. He’s got a sharp wit that I adore but is also sweet and caring . . . definitely one of my favourite book boys!

—— —Rachel Schieffelbein, author of Secondary Characters

Cassie Mae is a fabulous author who tugs on your heart strings as if she owns them. I will never be able to eat an orange again without thinking about Chase. Loved everything about this book!

—— Jade Hart, author of Coffee and Cockpits

It’s a brave book, easily consumed in a day, and I’m in awe of Hudson’s expert demolition of the conventions of the genre

—— Emma Rees , Times Higher Education

Thirst is shot through with a vein of optimism, and never lets go of its belief in the power of love, compassion and forgiveness

—— Alastair Mabbott , Herald

Unflinching yet tender-hearted study of two lowly characters teetering on the brink

—— Daragh Reddin , Irish Times

This one is a juicy read
