Featuring a brand new introduction from bestselling author, Julie Cohen, talking about what Jackie and her books mean to her! 'A galloping page-turner, full of Jackie Collins's signature sex and satire' JULIE COHEN'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 Panther Studios is the prize and Lucky Santangelo wants it. But Abe Panther won’t sell until she proves she has the guts to make it in Hollywood. Lucky never backs down from a challenge. She takes a chance and goes undercover. But no one is prepared for the shock waves that she sets off in Tinseltown. Watch ‘Lady Boss: The Jackie Collins Story’, produced by multi-award winning production company Passion Pictures, directed by Laurie Fairrie. 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.
