Non-Fiction Memoir
A jaw-dropping story of how a girl from the suburbs
ends up in a prince's hare, and emerges from the secret
Xanadu both richer and wiser At eighteen,
Jillian Lauren was an NYU theater school dropout with a tip
about an upcoming audition. The "casting director" told her
that a rich businessman in Singapore would pay pretty
American girls $20,000 if they stayed for two weeks to spice
up his parties. Soon, Jillian was on a plane to Borneo,
where she would spend the next eighteen months in the harem
of Prince Jefri Bolkiah, youngest brother of the Sultan of
Brunei, leaving behind her gritty East Village apartment for
a palace with rugs laced with gold and trading her band of
artist friends for a coterie of backstabbing beauties.
More than just a sexy read set in an exotic land,
Some Girls is also the story of how a rebellious teen
found herself-and the courage to meet her birth mother and
eventually adopt a baby boy.
