Introduction by Jackie Collins. "This book conveys an L.A. that is vibrant & alive."--Country Inns. In the Great Cities series.
When one of Lucky Santangelo's family is gunned down, her fury knows no bounds. While tracking the killer, her relationship with her husband is put to the test, especially when a man from her past comes back into her life. A man with a dangerous kiss.
All four parts of the serial novel LA Connections, set in Hollywood, are here, Power - it's not who you know, it's what you know; Obsession - it takes more than ambition to make it; Murder - there are some secrets worth killing for; and Revenge - living the high life can cost too much.
Features Lucky Santangelo from "Chances", "Lucky" and "Lady Boss". In "Lady Boss", Lucky bought Panther Studios. Here, her studios are taken from her by Dona Landsman - the scheming widow of the Santangelo's arch enemy, Santino Bonnati. And now Lucky - never a girl to give up - is out for revenge.
The book that made Collins one of America's favorite authors sweeps readers from the sophisticated playgrounds of Europe to the glittering gambling palaces of Las Vegas, plunging into the world of the Santangelo crime family. The book introduces street kid Gino Santangelo, who makes it all the way to the top, and his beautiful and daring daughter, Lucky.
Lucky Santangelo - she's ruthless, wild and dangerous. In 'Chances' she showed how deadly a woman can be. In 'Lucky' she showed what she had to do to win - 100% of the time. Now she's reaching for the ultimate prize - control over a major Hollywood studio.
