Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

"Thank God you're here, Adriana!" Mrs. Warner called out.

Taking a deep breath, Adrienne decided to stand up for herself. "Adrienne," she said clearly. "My name is Adrienne."

"How terrible. You should change it. Adriana has a bit of chic to it. Now, where are your bags?"

"My bags?" Adrienne asked, incredulous.

"Well, darling, you don't think that we could open the house in Palm Beach without having someone to watch Emma, do you?"

Sixteen-year-old Adrienne Lewis is in charge of eight-year-old Emma Warner, an evil genius who has gotten all five previous nannies fired — and Emma is the good news. Because then there's Emma's seventeen-year-old half-sister, Cameron. Everyone knows how wild Cameron is. Everyone knows what a liar Cameron is. Everyone knows what a user Cameron is. Everyone except Adrienne.

Adrienne's best friend, Liz, tries to warn her, but Adrienne tells Liz she's the one who doesn't know the real Cameron! Together, Adrienne and Cameron indulge in shopping sprees, bar hopping, and crazy, drunken parties.

Does Cameron actually want Adrienne to become her new best friend?

Of course not.

Cameron wants Adrienne's boyfriend.

True to life, funny, and oh, so catty, Confessions of a Teen Nannygives the behind-the-scenes scoop on what it's like to work and play with the rich and famous.

Synopsis:

Ashton gives teenagers a voyeuristic glimpse into the posh and powerful lifestyle of New York's afterschool nannies through the eyes of two best friends, who finally have a foot in the door to a life most only dream about.
