Product Description
From Publishers Weekly
Collins (Hollywood Wives; Hollywood Husbands) grabs fans with a no-holds-barred (and no subtlety shown) surefire bestseller spun around the disaffected children of Hollywood moguls. Tired of club-hopping and sexual flings, 24-year-old Jordanna Levitt is immobilized by ennui when a massive fight with her father-a famed producer married to a woman younger than his daughter-forces her out of her cushy nest. She lands a gofer job with Bobby Rush, the hot-ticket son of an ungracefully aging movie star, then quickly makes her mark as an actress. Her best friend Cheryl Landers deigns to try working, too, and becomes a successful Hollywood madam. On the periphery are Grant Lemon Jr., the dissolute son of a celluloid icon; anorectic Marjory Sanderson, the whiny, daughter of a TV magnate; and Zane Ricca, a movie-star wannabe and Mafia boss's nephew jailed for seven years for murdering a young actress and now stalking the women who testified against him. Collins festoons her pulp sundae with dollops of hot sex in cars, beds and driveways; Fatal Attraction-like trysts between stars and a cascade of trademark names. Overlapping plot lines are propelled by rude energy and blazing tabloid-style tales of suicide, substance abuse, towering egos, dubious parentage and truly star-crossed lovers. 500,000 first printing; major ad/promo; audio rights to Simon & Schuster; Literary Guild main selection. Author tour.

By Theresa W (mi, usa) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Hollywood Kids (Mass Market Paperback)
Jackie Collins is an excellent writer. Her books so fun to read. You really get wrapped up in them before you know what hit you. They're like soap opera's. I'd recommend this book if you like Collins or her style of writing. I think you'll be pleased.

I would have given it 5 stars...,
By mizz "mizzrahi" (USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Hollywood Kids (Mass Market Paperback)
If I was still in the 11th grade. I used to love her novels, and her writing style is still on point, however, at 20 I feel too grown up for the same old same old. Like I said I loved it at 17 but now it seems too much like everything else she wrote. And she was kind of out of touch with the reality of people, and that is the heart of a novel, the reality of a person is what readers want to understand.
