* *   Reviewed by Lyn Seippel

Vanessa has her senior year all planned out. She'll continue to get good grades, graduate second in her class, and be accepted to Yale University where her boyfriend will be in his sophomore year. She'll spend the summer bumming around Europe with her best friend. Life is good and getting better.

Or is it? An only child, Vanessa is shocked to learn that during a short separation from her mother, her dad fathered a baby with a world renowned actress. Their child is bad-boy sit-com star Reed Vaughn, who is only a few months older than she is. Worse, he will be living with her family for his senior year and going to Vanessa's school.

Vanessa, the good girl, has never had rules imposed on her because they were never needed, but to be fair her parents now insist that the rules imposed on Reed are for her too. Her female classmates drool over Reed while her male classmates scorn him. Her star-struck best friend has Reed Vaughn posters on the walls of her room. The only one who seems unaffected by him is a new female student who is a real threat to Vanessa's second in class status. She is also Reed's tutor. Vanessa can't decide whether to be insulted that Reed asked her competition for help or relieved he didn't ask her.

Vanessa's senior year is out of control and she blames Reed Vaughn. How will a girl who has her life planned out and never leaves anything to chance handle these major changes that rock her world?
