Publisher Description

She triumphed against all odds in a life-and-death gamble in Las Vegas. Now Lucky Santangelo has set her sights on Panther Studios -- if she can prove to Abe Panther that she has the guts to take over his beloved Hollywood empire.

In her climb to the top, Lucky uncovers a world of financial scheming, big-time betrayal and bizarre sex, and sets off a series of shock waves that stuns the industry and brings down the hatred of big-time crime boss Carlos Bonnatti -- a deadly hatred that goes back generations, threatening not only her marriage to movie star Lennie Golden but the lives of Lucky and her father Gino as well...

"I LOVE Lucky and Lennie. They are favorite couple I've ever read about in a book. This book in particular had more characters than usual and they were all connected in some way which only made the twists more exciting. I can't wait to finish this series."

— Jacqueline (5 out of 5 stars)

Quotes

  • “In Lady Boss, Jackie Collins combines…a Hollywood setting; a rich, gorgeous heroine; a generous sprinkling of movie stars, studio bosses, tycoons, socialites, scheming relatives, and hangers-on; and a sex scene (or two) per chapter.” 

    — New York Times
  • “Collins’ raunchy effervescence has a moral edge, making butts of male arrogance and vanity, and urging Hollywood to say no to films that hawk sexism and brutality.” 

    — Publishers Weekly
  • “Lady Boss is well written and intricately structured, has a light, breezy, often satirical tone, and moves with breathless energy.” 

    — New York Native
