I didn't like the book very much. This may be because I'm prejudiced against the topic. I hate the idea of older men preying on younger women. But the style of writing was good. Katya is a young girl who is working as a nanny in a Jersey neighborhood looking after two young children. While there, she meets Marcus Kidder who is a wealthy artist. He catches her window shopping at a lingerie store and tries to buy it for her. But she refuses. Later on, she visits him and is intriguied by him. The end was kind of expected but I didn't like the book mainly for the story line.
