Review Detail

Reader reviewed by Ronni

The AuPairs is about three young women who are taking care of a group of rambunctious, rich children. The story takes place in the Hamptons, an area famous for its wealthy and famous summer occupants.

Eliza is a former IT girl, and is in for a rude awakening when she realizes her new station as a worker rather than a reveler. Mara is small town and innocent, a bit naive and maybe a little bit backward. Jaqui is hot and knows it. And uses it to her advantage.

You will fall in love with the characters even as you want to shake them at times.

The only thing that bothered me about the book was the name dropping and the fad references. I feel those could hurt the timeliness of the story. Will a Hummer H2 really be top of the line in ten years?

Otherwise, a fun read; and a nice peek into the lives of the rich and priviledged.
