Lucky Santangelo hopes to surprise her husband by purchasing a film studio in this "hilarious satire of Hollywood passion, porn and politics." Also featured is lusty singer Venus Maria, whose macho brother sells her out to the tabloids. According to PW , "Collins's raunchy effervescence has a moral edge, making butts of male arrogance and vanity, and urging Hollywood to say no to films that hawk sexism and brutality . " Author tour.

Product Description

The dangerously beautiful Lucky -- star of two of Jackie Collins'previous smash, international number one bestsellers, Chancesand Lucky -- returns in Lady Boss. And thistime the shockingly sensual, ruthlessly clever Lucky is out to conquerHollywood!

In Chances Lucky grew up in a top crime family. InLucky, she was married three times. And now, in LadyBoss, she takes on Hollywood and wins!

Panther Studios is the prize and Lucky wants it... In her quest for power shemeets adversaries and enemies, friends and betrayers. And her relationship withher husband, charismatic comedian and movie star, Lennie Goldenis put to the test.

Lucky's first challenge is to buy the only movie studio still not controlled bya powerful conglomerate -- Panther Studios, owned by the retired, irascible, oldAbe Panther. But Abe won't sell his beloved studio to Luckyuntil she proves she has the guts to make it in Hollywood. It's his idea thatshe disguise herself as a secretary and go in undercover to find out what'sreally going on. It's a challenge that also satisfies Lucky's passionfor adventure -- and her desire to take chances...

In the process, Lucky uncovers a world of financial scheming, big-timebetrayal, 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 offa series of shock waves, not only threatening her marriage to Lennie, butbringing down on her head the hatred of crime boss CarlosBonnatti -- a hatred that goes back generations, putting in peril herlife, and the lives of everyone close to her!

With Lady Boss, Jackie Collins brings back one of her mostintriguing and endearing characters, Lucky Santangelo. Shealso proves once again that she is the unquestioned queen of glamorous fiction.

4.0 out of 5 stars A Fun Read!, Jan 13 2004
By Michael A. Newman (New Hyde Park, NY) - See all my reviews
I am not normally one to ready "trashy" novels. Ms. Collins has set up a great list of characters (Bridgett, Charlie Dollar, etc.) in the Lucky Santangelo series. This is perhaps the best of the bunch. Feisty Lucky Santangelo purchases a movie studio from one of the old time owners (kind of a Louis Mayer personna) and becomes the boss of the studio. This causes a lot of friction with her husband Lennie Golden, who feels cheated of his right to win roles on his own merit.

I read this one really fast!

5.0 out of 5 stars Who is really the boss?, Dec 23 2002
By Jorge Frid (Mexico City) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
First of all let me tell you that this book is not an easy reading, it has to many characters and to many stories, to be exact it has six stories, at first all of them separately but in the middle of the book they will be as one big story. Of course the main story, the story of Lucky and Lennie is the must important, but you are really interested in all the stories at the same time. When you end a chapter of one story you want to skip the next chapter to see what happened in that specific story, but when you start to read about the other story you forget about the first one and you will want to know what happened to this one.
The end of the book is not so good, but the book still keep 5 stars

5.0 out of 5 stars 'LADY BOSS', Sep 18 2002
By DevJohn01 (Somerset, NJ) - See all my reviews
I recently finished 'LADY BOSS' the third book in the Lucky Santangelo series and I absolutely loved it! Where 'LUCKY' was good 'LADY BOSS' was great. In this third installment Lucky goes to Hollywood in hopes of acquiring a major movie studio, however, just before she closes the deal she finds out that there is a catch. She has to work undercover at the studio for six weeks as a plain Jane secretary! At first Lucky is reluctant but soon the idea of surprising her husband movie star Lennie Golden with his own studio coupled with the sheer enjoyment of being able to spy on all of the studio executives is too much for Lucky to pass up. But as Lucky soon finds out Lennie is not too thrilled with her surprise, which puts their marriage in serious jeopardy.

There are so many enjoyable story lines in this book that it makes it hard to put down. An example of this is the story of Venus Maria and Martin Swanson the movie star and the billionaire. Swanson is a business tycoon who is married to Dena Swanson a woman who became famous by using the Swanson name and refuses to let anybody take that away from her including the Madonna like movie and recording star Venus Maria. But Venus is determined to have Martin all to herself that is until her brother Emilio shows up and stirs up trouble for the couple.

I found this book to be extremely entertaining and I cannot wait to read the next book in the series. Lucky is powerful, demanding and independent a true example of a strong woman. 5 Stars!
