Girls & Women, Friendship, Being a Teen 

To do: —Attend photo shoot on pier at sunset. —Get invited to NYC's most exclusive parties. —Walk big star's makeup artist's assistant's dog. —Fetch dry cleaning when it arrives from Paris. There's nothing run-of-the-mill about working at Skirt, the preeminent fashion magazine. I'm Kira Parker, total fashion junkie. I thought I had it made when I landed this job. Ha. I mean, don't get me wrong—working at Skirt is amazing. And spending the summer in New York City without my parents? Golden. But now I'm up against Daphne Hughes, daughter of the magazine's owner. What Daphne wants, she gets—all wrapped up in a cute Coach bag. She's already got the guy of my dreams and all the right connections. Now she thinks she'll get the plum position working for the editor in chief without even lifting a diamond-adorned pinky? This catwalk is primed for battle. - from Amzon
