Jackie Collins Rocks!!!

Any fan of Ms. Collins must read Drop Dead Beautiful. Twists & turns on every page!! Any Lucky Santangelo Fan has GOT to own this Book. Ms. Collins keep writing !!!!

Jackie's done it again...

Once again when I don't think Jackie Collins can make Lucky Santangelo any more interesting or cunning, she does & this is Ms. Collins' best "Lucky" book ever. A personal aside to Ms. Collins -- does Lucky ever age? She seems so young still.

A fast, entertaining read.

Lucky Santangelo is back! This time around Lucky has given up the movie business to pursue the business venture of opening a hotel in Vegas. As Lucky prepares to open The Keys, her sixteen year-old daughter Max prepares to lose her virginity to a friend she met on the Internet. However, this Internet friend is not really a friend...he's a twisted young man seeking revenge against Lucky. Also looking for revenge is Anthony "Bonatti" Bonar, a psycho mob killer hoping to make Lucky pay for murdering his father. While Anthony runs around cheating, murdering and plotting his revenge, his lonely wife Irma realizes she has had it with her husband and plans to stop him once and for all. Add to this mix movie star Venus Maria, her young boy-toy boyfriend, an infatuated movie director, his jealous girlfriend, Lucky's ninety five year-old father Gino, and a star-studded event to celebrate the opening of The Keys that ends in several murders and you have classic Jackie Collins! `Drop Dead Beautiful' is pure entertainment. Fans of Jackie Collins know that she has always been a master at creating fast-paced tales of wealth, action and murder, all while juggling many character plot lines. Even though some of the character story lines are boring, the least interesting being that of Venus Maria and her boyfriend, the lead plots of Max and her near-death encounter, Bonar's revenge, Irma getting even, and Lucky's hotel opening are strong enough to have readers racing through the pages. Jackie Collins has created another winner that will fly up the bestseller lists. Nick Gonnella
