Hollywood Wives Synopsis
Whether you're new to the world of Jackie Collins, or you know her books intimately, you'll find something to love in the achingly sexy Hollywood Wives, featuring an introduction from Helen Ellis.
'When I was thirteen, Jackie Collins showed me how to be brave. You write what no one thinks you can write. You ask for money no one wants to admit that you've earned. You fight for your marriage when your husband has failed you' HELEN ELLIS
'Forty years after Hollywood Wives was published, it's as relevant and enjoyable as it ever was' COLLEEN HOOVER
They lunch at Ma Maison on salads and hot gossip. They cruise Rodeo Drive, turning shopping at Giorgio and Gucci into an art form. These are Hollywood wives and they hold the keys to the kingdom.
But when your ticket to ride is a famous husband, there are no guarantees. This scorching blockbuster exposes the glittering bitchery of Beverly Hills before racing to a chilling and unexpected climax.
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.
