Crazy Hot

Crazy Hot

This summer’s not just hot…it’s crazy hot.

It’s been a year since the hottest au pairs ever saw the Hamptons, and they’re certainly older—though not necessarily wiser. Or drama-free.

Eliza, Jacqui, and Mara thought they’d be spending the summer apart, but when Eliza’s new stepmother finds herself in need of some nannying help around the megamansion with the step-monsters, Eliza makes a call…and Jacqui and Mara wind up with two first-class tickets to the Hamptons.

After ruling her first year at Parsons, Eliza, the up-and-coming starlet-turned-designer, is opening her own boutique on super posh Main Street. But it’s not just Eliza’s career that’s on the fast track—her relationship with Jeremy is too. Too bad he’s moving too fast for Eliza to keep up.

Brazilian beauty Jacqui is trying to be a good, responsible au pair. But it’s tough when there’s a hot British photographer following you around, telling you to quit your job and become an international supermodel. All she wants is to make enough money to pay for NYU…so what happens when she gets a much bigger offer?

After getting fired from her travel-writing job and dumped at the airport by her journalist boyfriend, Mara settles for a summer chasing toddlers once again. There’s one benefit to nannying: She’ll have plenty of material for the novel she’s writing about being an au pair—and an It Girl—in the Hamptons. Nothing’s going to distract her from the task at hand…except perhaps her old flame, Ryan Perry.

Can our three favorite Hamptons girls survive the craziest, hottest summer yet?

In the Hamptons for their third summer, Mara, Eliza, and Jacqui do their best not to get burned on the beach—or in love—in Book 3 of the Beach Lane series.

It’s another summer in the Hamptons for Mara, Eliza, and Jacqui—and babysitting is officially on the back burner.

Mara is the new It Girl of the Hamptons, writing a column about the local nightlife. She has a pass to every hot club, but all her boyfriend Ryan wants to do is stay home and cuddle.

Eliza is in relationship bliss with Jeremy, but her hectic fashion internship is limiting their time together. Can they make it work?

Jacqui has decided to forego the no boys rules, especially when three dot.com billionaires move in next door and vie for her affection.

The girls seem to have it all this summer. But as all good Hamptons girls know, looks can be  deceiving…and sometimes when the sun shines, it scorches.

Mara, Eliza, and Jacqui are back in the Hamptons for another summer of beaches, boys, and—oh, yeah—babysitting in this second book in the Beach Lane series.

Back in the Hamptons for another summer, Mara, Eliza and Jacqui have to deal with the fallout of how they spent their winters.

Mara dumped Ryan, but now wants him back. Unfortunately, he may have moved on. To Eliza.

Eliza is worried about Mara finding out about her recent fling—but also about what Jeremy will think.

And Jacqui is eyeing the Perrys’ new au pair, Philippe. Too bad she’s sworn off boys…

If the girls want to keep their jobs, they have to get their love lives under control—or they’ll be on the first bus out of the Hamptons.

Join Mara, Eliza, and Jacqui for a sizzling summer on the beaches of the Hamptons—with no shortage of scandal—in this start to the Beach Lane series.

Meet Mara Walters, Eliza Thompson, and Jacqui Velasco, newly hired au pairs for a wealthy family summering in the Hamptons.

For Mara this job means a fast way out of small-town life. Eliza just wants to return to the posh world she wishes she never left. And for Jacqui, it’s a way back into the arms of the American boyfriend who told her he’d email as soon as he got home. And didn’t.

Besides, how bad can it be, watching a couple of kids on the beach all day? But things get complicated when romance enters the picture, along with superspoiled former friends and lost loves. Mara, Eliza, and Jacqui girls have got to stick together, or their summer will be over before it begins.
