The dangerously beautiful Lucky-- star of two of Jackie Collins'
previous smash, international number one bestsellers, "Chances" and
"Lucky"-- returns in "Lady Boss". And this time the shockingly sensual,
ruthlessly clever Lucky is out to conquer Hollywood!
In "Chances" Lucky grew up in a top crime family. In "Lucky", she was
married three times. And now, in "Lady Boss", she takes on Hollywood and
wins!
Panther Studios is the prize and Lucky wants it... In her quest for
power she meets adversaries and enemies, friends and betrayers. And her
relationship with her husband, charismatic comedian and movie star,
Lennie Golden is put to the test.
Lucky's first challenge is to buy the only movie studio still not
controlled by a powerful conglomerate-- Panther Studios, owned by the
retired, irascible, old Abe Panther. But Abe won't sell his beloved
studio to Lucky until she proves she has the guts to make it in
Hollywood. It's his idea that she disguise herself as a secretary and go
in undercover to find out what's really going on. It's a challenge that
also satisfies Lucky's passion for adventure-- and her desire to take
chances...
In the process, Lucky uncovers a world of financial scheming, big-time
betrayal, and bizarre sex.
Panther Studios and Lucky Santangelo... a dangerous mix...
When Lucky makes her final move, assuming the role of "Lady Boss" at
Panther Studios, she stuns the entire industry and sets off a series of
shock waves, not only threatening her marriage to Lennie, but bringing
down on her head the hatred of crime boss Carlos Bonnatti-- a hatred
that goes back generations, putting in peril her life, and the lives of
everyone close to her!
With "Lady Boss", Jackie Collins brings back one of her most intriguing
and endearing characters, Lucky Santangelo. She also proves once again
that she is the unquestioned queen of glamorous fiction.
