Summer couldn’t come fast enough, right? With summer just around the corner this looks like a good Teen Summer read.
“Sun and sea, hot parties, hot guys, and the promise of $10 000 for taking care of four overprivileged, undersupervised kids. This is the life that awaits three teens during a summer in New York’s exclusive Hamptons. Eliza, whose father’s fortune fell, is hoping to recapture some of the glamour and luxury of her former life by taking this position where her family once had a summer home. Mara is looking for a way out of her small hometown and a way to earn enough money for a car and college tuition. Jacqui, a Brazilian beauty used to getting everything she wants, is looking for the one thing that eludes her: true love. The three are hired by the Perrys and wade through problematic relationships, power struggles, and the ever-important social scene”–From School Library Journal.

Sequel to Pleasure. Nia Simone Bijou embarks on a quest to enhance her artistic gifts through heightened sensory experience, Hollywood-style. Four years have passed since the events of Pleasure, and Nia’s success as a writer has grown, bringing her from Atlanta to Los Angeles. Drawn to an exclusive pleasure palace, where patrons try on roles as they actively shun their respective realities, Nia’s ability to balance truth and fantasy becomes increasingly blurred. Will her relationship with the mysterious, often unavailable Prada survive the countless temptations? Will her successful literary career be given over to impulse indulgence? Does decadence know any bounds? When Nia’s past comes back to mingle with her present, and when her staid public persona clashes with her fantasy life of decadence, readers will be stunned by the outcome.
Porsche Santiaga is a reality action star and the Brooklyn born middle child and forgotten sister from “The Coldest Winter Ever.” Porsche is young and beautiful and unafraid to fight and love with the same extreme intensity. It is a coming-of-age journey from the throne to the gutter to the throne, told with deep emotion and shocking scenes.
After an argument sends their son’s girlfriend into early labor, Reverend Curtis Black and his wife experience a rift between them that may send her into the arms of another man.
