Young Adult Romance
High school freshman Dani McKinley's world is rocked when
she finds out that she is the daughter of B-list actor and
notorious womanizer Mark Ocean. Mark is all too eager to get
his acting career back on track, so he follows his agent's
advice about cleaning up his image and invites his "new"
daughter to spend the summer with him. Armed with credit
cards, club memberships, and a new wardrobe, Dani spends the
summer navigating the foreign culture of Hollywood. Her new
friends school Dani in everything from attaching hair
extensions to managing the paparazzi. She meets Jason, a
gorgeous young personal trainer who is easy on the eyes and
wildly flirtatious . . . But is this smug hottie the one for
Dani? Or will she ignore her friends' eye rolling and go for
Nate, the goofy but sweet surfer? Even tougher than all the
new social pressures, is the challenge of trying to deal
with her father. What Mark Ocean has in wealth, he sorely
lacks in parenting skills. The fatherly interest Mark feigns
has everything to do with charming the public and virtually
nothing to do with connecting with his daughter. Dani
desperately tries to teach her father that being a dad is
not just about supplying her with Prada bags and trips to
movie premieres, and the result of the clueless actor's
attempts at fatherhood is both funny and heart-wrenching.
Follow Dani and Mark while they struggle to figure out what
it means to be father and daughter, and as they navigate
their own complicated love lives. Humor, tears, heartache,
and teen angst will leave you aching to see how their
dilemmas are resolved.
