When the glamorous Grosvenor sisters arrive in the exclusive Hamptons beach town of Little Elbow, they can't help but cause a stir.
Gorgeous Grace and Charming Charity are soon hot favourites on everybody's guest-list. Except that of their neighbour, Marcella Hunter. Heiress Marcella doesn't want the competition and when Grace starts dating Marcella's 'Plan B' man - dull but extraordinarily rich Choate Fitzgerald - the gloves are off. Marcella determines to find out where the sisters really came from. And exactly how they can afford to rent a six-bedroom beach house in this millionaires' playground. In the process, however, it's discovered that quite a few of the people spending that summer in Little Elbow are not exactly what they seem . . .'A warm and fuzzy way to spend a few January hours. Chris Manby fans are sure to love it.' -- Heat 'Good comic romp - and ghastly heiress Marcella, queen bee of the Little Elbow resort, is an excellent bitch with a stack of barbed one-liners.' -- Metro Praise for Chris Manby: 'Smartly written, extremely readable, and gives us a fascinating and funny glimpse into the dark side of love' -- Heat 'A fast-track, fun romance full of monkey business' -- Daily Mail on GIRL MEETS APE 'Nothing short of brilliant' -- Marie Claire on SEVEN SUNNY DAYS 'Devour it in one go' -- Company on READY OR NOT 'A warm and fuzzy way to spend a few January hours. Chris Manby fans are sure to love it.' -- Heat
