“Laine had been Stacey’s best friend in New York. But after Stacey moved to Stoneybrook, Laine changed. She became really snobby and cold.”

“Mary Anne is to sports what I am to high fashion. She never goes near the stuff. Normally she’d be the last person I’d ask to coach. But I was desperate. Klinic was about to start, and Charlie was nowhere to be seen. That morning he’d stomped out of the house without saying a word. He hadn’t spoken to me since our argument, almost a whole day earlier. Poor Mary Anne. She wasn’t suspecting a thing. As she walked onto the field with Jamie, she was clutching a paperback book, looking forward to a nice, quiet morning of reading. “So the ball was coming to me like this: nyeeeeeeeeaar …” Jamie said, imitating the flight of the ball with one arm. “And I went like this.” He backpedaled, waving his arms. “And the ball went like this — pop!” He acted out a dramatic catch.”

“Not enough red carpets here in Stoneybrook, huh?” Stacey asked. “Look, I know what you’re thinking. She’s snobby. She expects people to obey her every command. She doesn’t seem to care what people think of her. But you have to understand, she grew up in a different world than we did. With different rules. In England, she’s in the so-called ruling class. People are expected to act a certain way. Here in the U.S., where everyone’s lumped together, she doesn’t know how to act. So what do the kids in her school do? They ignore her. Maybe they’re afraid of her. And at home, she’s kept practically under lock and key by her nanny. She has no real friends.”
