Jaxx Carter is ready for a summer at the beach. Being a nanny in the Hamptons seemed like the perfect thing to do after high school graduation, so it didn't take a lot of convincing from her best friend to get her to agree to the job - even though she did feel like a fish out of water among the beautiful people that she now saw all around her.
