| Publisher Description: With six teenage girls living under one roof, things are bound to get interesting. Mix six teenaged girls and one '60s fashion icon (retired, of course) in an old Victorian-era boarding home. Add guys and dating, a little high-school angst, and huge personalities ... and you've got the Carter House Girls. After some begging on Taylor's part, DJ accepts Taylor's invitation to join her in Las Vegas during Christmas break, where Taylor's mom is performing. DJ soon discovers that the relaxing vacation she was promised is anything but, as Taylor is focused on one thing only--partying with a capital "P." Taylor's invited Eliza as well, and DJ is quickly overwhelmed by the behavior of the combined--and unchaperoned--duo. As the parties begin to escalate, DJ is left with few options but to tag along as a babysitter ... and pray Taylor will see the light before she totally self-destructs. |
