About this ebook

Includes a hilarious new introduction from Daisy Buchanan, talking about what this book and Jackie means to her!

'We all want to be Lucky for one specific reason, and it isn't her wealth or her looks. It's because she makes things happen' DAISY BUCHANAN

'Jackie Collins’s daring, unapologetic stroke of the pen, combined with her glorious wit, has single-handedly given creative license to new generations of authors and storytellers.' COLLEEN HOOVER

Dangerously sensual, breathtakingly beautiful, and utterly unforgettable, she is Lucky Santangelo...

There have been many imitators, but only ever one Jackie Collins.  With millions of her books sold around the world, and thirty-one New York Times bestsellers, she is one of the world’s top-selling novelists. From glamorous Beverly Hills bedrooms to Hollywood movie studios; from glittering rock concerts to the yachts of billionaires, Jackie chronicled the scandalous lives of the rich, famous, and infamous from the inside looking out.

Ratings and reviews

I have read a lot of Jackie Collins in the past, and new what to expect, that it would be a bit on the raunchy side, but I think it was a bit to much, or may be I'm just getting older. The storyline, as ever, was brilliant, Jackie is definitely the best, when it comes to Hollywood glitz and glamour.

This was my 3rd time reading this. I absolutely adore the characters and can always picture everything as I'm reading. Love it and love Jackie Collins

Highly recommended

About the author

Jackie Collins has been called a “raunchy moralist” by the director Louis Malle and “Hollywood’s own Marcel Proust” by Vanity Fair. With over 500 million copies of her books sold in more than forty countries, and with thirty-two New York Times bestsellers to her credit, she is one of the world’s top-selling novelists. Six of her novels have been adapted for film or TV. Collins was awarded an OBE (Order of the British Empire) by the Queen of England in 2013 for her services to literature and charity. When accepting the honor she said to the Queen, “Not bad for a school drop-out”—a revelation capturing her belief that both passion and determination can lead to big dreams coming true. She lived in Beverly Hills where she had a front-row seat to the lives she so accurately captured in her compulsive plotlines. She was a creative force, a trailblazer for women in fiction, and in her own words “a kick-ass writer!” Her fascinating life as a writer and icon is explored in the CNN Films and Netflix documentary Lady Boss: The Jackie Collins Story.
