"Over two decades of experience guiding authors and brands on both sides of the Atlantic."
Over the course of my career, I’ve held senior editorial and marketing roles at Packt Publishing and Ankerwycke Books, and I co-founded the boutique literary agency Jonathan Scott Inc., where I placed titles with leading publishers such as St. Martin’s Press, Wiley, and Rodale. Among my agency clients were marketing guru and New York Times bestselling author Gary Vaynerchuk and Top Chef star Spike Mendelsohn.

Trash
Book Two of The Templeton Family Chronicles The sequel to Posh
Welcome to Beverly Hills, where the sun isn’t the only thing that burns…
In Trash (or American Carnage), the Templeton universe widens as a new cast takes the stage, under the unforgiving sunshine of Southern California. At its center is Lady MacPherson, Beverly Hills’ leading relationship therapist, whose impeccably curated life begins to crack. Her husband, Dr. Noah Steinman, a newly tenured biochemist at UCLA, is harboring secrets, and nurturing an obsession that could detonate their marriage.
And spiraling through their world is Naomi Wasserman: gorgeous, mysterious, and dangerously unhinged. Her arrival in Beverly Hills unleashes a wave of seduction, betrayal, and emotional carnage that no one in her orbit will escape.
Meanwhile, back in London, Chloe Templeton – still reeling from Guy’s betrayal – acquires a new assistant who is far from what she seems; and Tessa prepares for her Fashion Week debut as a figure from her past threatens to unravel her carefully crafted identity.
Bold, sharp, and irresistibly entertaining, Trash (or American Carnage) plunges deeper into the Templeton world where glamour meets madness, excess reigns supreme, and everyone pays the price.
