Synopsis:

After getting a degree from Yale, Megan Smith is wasting her hard-earned education by working for a tabloid magazine. Her life takes a dramatic turn one day when she gets fired and then meets cosmetics mogul Laurel Limoges, who makes her an offer she just can't refuse -- a job as a live-in tutor for Laurel's twin teenage granddaughters.

Megan is whisked off to an incredible mansion in Palm Beach and is given every luxury she could possibly dream of, complete with a gorgeous neighbor. The teens aren't exactly thrilled to have a live-in tutor, but Megan isn't about to go quietly into the night and let these spoiled brats ruin her amazing new life.
