Rated 5 stars ***** ebook. ARC. Published May 13, 2014. Simon Pulse (Simon & Schuster).
Seventeen-year-old Ren didn’t know the first thing about how to be a nanny when she applied for the nanny job on Nantucket Island. She wants to be a music journalist at University if her A level results allow, but now has to get as far away from her ex-boyfriend in London as soon as possible so she won’t have to see him with his new girlfriend.
Life as a nanny seemed easy as Ren was soon befriended by a group of rich teens and began getting invitations to their fancy parties. Despite wondering about secrets they seemed to have with each other, Ren felt Jeremy stood out as the nicest and the handsomest. As they found themselves drawn to each other, Ren wondered if he was The One.
When she met Jesse, the local bad boy, it didn’t take long to question her feelings for Jeremy. As a guitar player for a local band, Jesse’s hotness level rises. Despite knowing of his violent nature, and that he’d just gotten out of jail for assault, he and Ren seem to have a strange attraction for each other.
As if relationships weren’t confusing enough, someone on the Island is murdering foreign nannies. When a second nanny turns up dead, Ren is fearful she will be next. After all, she’s a nanny and is also foreign. Little does she know that life on Nantucket Island will soon take a turn for the worse.
Recommended for teens 14 and older.
