A fantastic YA read that I absolutely adored. Very well written with characters I could easily relate to. While I'm long past my YA years, some things don't change. The struggles to find out how to be the best you and fit in are the same in every generation, and this story shows two extremes. Trina is the classic over achiever, overly prepared and organized and unfortunately not always as flexible as she needs to be. Slade the classic slacker, smarter than he lets on and always looking to have fun rather than work hard. When these two are paired to Nanny to young children over the summer they have to find some way to work together. It may be the best summer they've ever had! I highly recommend this one!

An amazing YA story! Trina and Slade are nannying for best friends over the summer. These two couldn't be more opposite. Trina plans everything and carries an organized binder with her everywhere she goes. Slade is the laid back popular guy who's looking for a good time. These two couldn't stand each other in the beginning of the story. Slade hadn't always been the nicest to Trina over the time they've known each other and Trina doesn't think much of him. Over the course of the summer, Trina and Slade learn from each other and develop a friendship. But can their relationship survive when secrets are revealed? This was an awesome YA story. The characters were well-developed and I found myself laughing at some of the situations they found themselves in with the kids over the summer. This was my first book by this author but it definitely won't be the last!

I absolutely love this book!!
