Our beloved au pairs are back for another summer in the smokin' hot Hamptons. This summer, however, things are going to be a little different. Eliza's not working with Jacqui and Mara anymore for the Perrys; instead, she's gotten herself a bad-paying but prestigious job at the hottest new nighclub, and Philippe, a sexy French guy, is the new au pair, one that Jacqui can't seem to keep her hands away from, despite her No Boys rule.

Mara broke up with Ryan because she feels like she doesn't deserve him, but seeing him with other girls still hurts. Luckily, there's Garrett Reynolds, who likes her because she's fun, which is what Mara decides to be in order to make Ryan jealous.

Little does she know that over winter break, Eliza hooked up with Ryan. They're not officially seeing each other, more like friends with benefits, seeing as how both are still stuck on different people: Ryan on Mara, and Eliza on Jeremy, her ex-boyfriend-slash-gardener-turned-businessman. But Jeremy seems distant, and her parents are acting like snobs because he's not in the same class as them.

With all the secrets and unspoken words going around, is it any wonder that these love triangles and friendships are poised to explode? SKINNY DIPPING keeps up the same rapid, fun pace that Melissa de la Cruz set in the first book of this addictive series.
