Jackie does it again
I read all of Jackie Collins books in paperback or hardback in the 1980’s but decided (because I knew I wouldn’t remember the stories after so many years) to read them on Kindle. This is the third book I’ve now read the second time and enjoyed it just as much as the others. Lucky is the daughter of Gino who in his younger days could be described as a gangster who made a lot of enemies. However over the years he made millions of dollars building hotels. When he goes into hiding abroad to evade paying taxes he owes he asks his son to take over the business however he shows no interest so Lucky decides she’ll take over and she does so successfully. One thing I enjoy about Jackie’s books is the interesting characters she brings into the story, rich successful people and some not so successful. Definitely one to read

One of her best
The second book in this series, and by far the best. We follow the lives of Lucky and Gino Santangelo, Lennie Golden and Carrie and Stephen Berkeley.The book took a while to get going, but when it does, Jackie Collins proves herself to be master at producing a suspenseful story. It's exciting, believable, and funny at times. The build up to the finale was a real nail biter. This book is for me, one of Jackie Collins' finest moments.Other books you might like to read Cold Steel on the Rocks We Are Cold Steel Kalter Stahl auf den Felsen Wir Sind Kalter Stahl

A great page-turner
I had avoided reading Jackie Collins previously (for no good reason) but now I'm hooked! She has such tremendous insight into the underbelly of society one wonders where and how she acquired her knowledge! Wherever and however, the book is great. I'll be reading the next one in the series once I've read some of my ebook backlog! Easy to buy, just takes a time to read everything!

Total trash but I loved it!
This is my first experience of a Jackie Collins book. For years I have avoided them as I studied english lit and was always told that it was no good for the brain! Well I decded to give it a go and I loved it! The main character Lucky is strong, independent and a little bit cruel but likable.The writing style is great- like watching a brilliant soap. This is a real page turner. I will be making some more Jackie Collins purchases very soon!

Another excellent book by Jackie Collins. Once started, difficult to put the book down. She brings the characters to life.
