The Nannies (2007)
“Anya yelled. “Stretch at top!”Lydia lay on a chaise longue clad in a bikini the size of three postage stamps. She had a Stoli 007 in hand—the moms, as she had come to think of her aunt Kat and her spouse, Anya, had a very European attitude toward drinking, which was just fine with Lydia. At the moment, she lay twenty feet from an aquamarine swimming pool shaped like a tennis racquet. A hundred feet beyond that was the tennis court where Anya was coaching seventeen-year-old Oksana Kharlamova, cu...rrently seeded sixty-first in the world. Both Russian natives were so used to speaking English that they were conducting the lesson in their adopted tongue.Lydia stretched and practically purred with satisfaction.
