Description

The #1 New York Times bestselling author's life as a writer and icon is now explored in the CNN Films documentary Lady Boss: The Jackie Collins Story! The dangerously beautiful Lucky Santangelo--star of two of Jackie Collins's previous smash, international bestsellers, Chances and Lucky--returns, 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. 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 unleashing the hatred of crime boss Carlos Bonnatti--a hatred that goes back generations, putting her life, and the lives of everyone close to her, in danger... ​Bringing back one of her most intriguing and endearing characters, Lucky Santangelo, Jackie Collins shows once again that she is the unquestioned queen of glamorous fiction.

Author Biography:

Jackie Collins has been called a "raunchy moralist" by the director Louis Malle and "Hollywood's own Marcel Proust" by Vanity Fair. With over 500 million copies of her books sold in more than forty countries, and with thirty-two New York Times bestsellers to her credit, she is one of the world's top-selling novelists. Six of her novels have been adapted for film or TV. Collins was awarded an OBE (Order of the British Empire) by the Queen of England in 2013 for her services to literature and charity. When accepting the honor she said to the Queen, "Not bad for a school drop-out"--a revelation capturing her belief that both passion and determination can lead to big dreams coming true. She lived in Beverly Hills where she had a front-row seat to the lives she so accurately captured in her compulsive plotlines. She was a creative force, a trailblazer for women in fiction, and in her own words "a kick-ass writer!" Her fascinating life as a writer and icon is explored in the CNN Films and Netflix documentary Lady Boss: The Jackie Collins Story. Discover more at JackieCollins.com.
