Storyline

A young woman, her uptight step sister and her best friend use their savings for a long anticipated dream trip to Paris, which turns out to be a big disappointment. When they decide to take a break from their lousy tour and duck into the lobby of a luxury hotel, one of them is mistaken for a spoiled British heiress. Before they get the chance to reveal their true identities they are wrapped up in misadventures during a vacation to Monte Carlo instead.

User Reviews

Refreshing

Three hard body chicks go up against the competition after being mistaken for others and themselves (i.e. Should they keep the pretense going) and battle their hormones and love interests.

The audience will choose the thinnest and most flaunting of course. Who will it be?? Probably Emma. But none of the chicks is fat or tattooed so men would be interested in all of them (at once?). Meg needs some good love making to become more natural and less a prison of her uptight upbringing.

Dark horse: yummy mommy.

Enjoy.
