A beloved character returns...A bestselling author celebrates her 25th novel...Get ready for a scandalously scintillating story like only Jackie Collins can deliver! Its not easy being rich, gorgeous, successful and a happily married mom, but Mafia princess turned Hollywood producer and real estate mogul Lucky Santangelo, last seen in 1999s Dangerous Kiss, again proves up to the challenge. In Collinss latest vendetta romance, Lucky plans her father Ginos 95th birthday bash while building a Las Vegas megaresort, unaware that family foe Anthony Bonar (né Bonnatti) is plotting revenge. In turn, Anthony is unaware of wife Irmas sexual awakening in the arms of their Mexican gardener, who in turn is unaware of Irmas affair with a federal drug enforcement agent. Meanwhile Luckys 16-year-old daughter, Max, tells her parents shes with friends when shes really headed to a rendezvous with a man she meets on the Internet. That date provides the novels fast-paced action, while Irma provides the novels best sex and violence. Less gripping subplots include the on-again off-again relationship between Luckys business partner, Alex, and his jealous girlfriend, as well as the off-again on-again romance between Luckys best friend, the diva Venus, and her star-stud boyfriend, Billy. Collins delivers Luckys usual mix of celebrity fantasy and godfather justice while Max promises to grow up in future sequels as troublesome and triumphant as her glitzy mom.
