YA
After she drunkenly crashes her car, Paris Hilton–esque heiress Lexington's father makes her work a different low-wage job every week for one year to earn her trust fund. New friends, a hot intern, and personal revelations help her appreciate her circumstances, and even her father. Brody earns Lexi's one-eighty transformation through deliberate pacing and astute characterization. A glitzy caper with real heart.
