Story
Living in a tiny Queens apartment, Rebecca and her husband Mickey typify struggling, 30-something New Yorkers—he's an actor, and she's a freelance journalist. But after the arrival of their baby son, the couple decides to pack up and head for sunny Palm Beach, where Mickey's been offered a sweet deal managing the household of a multimillionaire Democratic donor. Once there, he quickly doubles his salary by going to work for venture capitalist Cecil Stone. As the two are pulled deeper into the topsy-turvy household, they become increasingly dependent on their problematic benefactors.

This is a fantastic story that kept me captivated the whole time and had some hilarious moments too. I enjoyed seeing Rebecca find where she will and will not compromise her values for various outcomes. If you have ever wondered what you would and would not sacrifice, listen to this book!
