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.
The Beach Lane series is created by Alloy Entertainment, producer of bestselling teen and middle grade series including The Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants, Gossip Girl, The Vampire Diaries, and Pretty Little Liars.
Originally published as part of the Au Pairs series.

Gr 9 Up -Eliza, Mara, and Jacqui return for a second season of high fashion, fabulous parties, unlimited alcohol, sex, and celebrities in New York's exclusive Hamptons. Last summer, as au pairs for the wealthy Perry family, the girls partied their way through the season. Now Mara and Jacqui have returned to care for the Perry children while Eliza has chosen to work at the ultra-hip nightclub, The Seventh Circle. Sound perfect? Not quite. Eliza has broken up with the hunky gardener from last year and has hooked up with Ryan Perry, Mara's ex-boyfriend. After all, Mara did break up with him. The catch is that, unbeknownst to Eliza, Mara wants him back. Jacqui, the beautiful Brazilian, has recently sworn off men -until she meets Eliza's replacement, the stunning Philippe. Oh, yeah, it may be worth mentioning that Mrs. Perry also has her eye on him. The story is ultimately about the fleeting nature of popularity and how easy it is to get caught up in the game. There is plenty of underage drinking, some mild drug use, and nonexplicit sex. One thing is for sure, this book will be in high demand. Readers of "The Au Pairs" (S & S, 2004) will be dying to know what happens to the girls. Teens unfamiliar with these characters will be attracted by the eye-catching cover showing shapely tanned legs and discarded bikinis on a beach. Give this to fans of Cecily von Ziegesar's -Gossip Girl - books and Zoey Dean's -The A-List - series (both Little, Brown)." -Michele Capozzella, Chappaqua Public Library, NY"Copyright 2005 School Library Journal, LLC Used with permission.

This sequel to "The Au Pairs" is just as salacious as the first book. While Mara and Jacqui are again nannying, Eliza has gotten a job at the newest hot club in the Hamptons. Secret trysts, sexy clothes, and friendships on the line make this a trite, though enjoyable, guilty pleasure.(Copyright 2005 by The Horn Book, Incorporated, Boston. All rights reserved.)
