About the book: year / The future Reid Brennan looks as bright as the two-carat diamonds in the ears of her new neighbors. It wasn't enough for Reed to get accepted into the most prestigious private boarding school in the country. To do this, she had to break all the rules, but she did the impossible: Reed is now a Billings Girl. And with her new status comes respect, envy and, most importantly, opportunity. Not to mention the parties. Unfortunately, at the next illegal party in the woods of Easton's campus, her roommate takes several pictures of Reed in more than one compromising position. She uses the photos to blackmail Reed. Reed needs to dig up dirt on Billings' most powerful and popular Girls or she'll get herself expelled. And speaking of parties, Legacy is coming up. It's an invitation-only Halloween party in New York City, and rumors are swirling that Thomas—Reed's missing boyfriend—will show up. It's a shame Reed wasn't even invited. The Billings Girl's life is every bit as charming as Reed imagined. What she didn't count on was the tangled web of private lies that these girls weave.
