“Wry, cheeky, and outrageously entertaining.”—Michelle Buonfiglio, Lifetime TV
“Nothing can make your summer sizzle better than a Jackie Collins novel. Her newest book is called Drop Dead Beautiful. And if history is any indication, its bound to be yet another best seller…”—NBC Newss “The Today Show”
“Breathless.”—Kirkus Reviews
“Dysfunctional relationships, feuding families, and simmering vendettas, punctuated by lusty liaisons. One for fans of The Sopranos and Desperate Housewives.”—The Telegraph
“The latest book in her continuing saga of Lucky Santangelo and her clan careens between Bel Air, Vegas and Mexico. Collins can still weave an entertaining spell as she visits the lives of the rich and infamous.”—Romantic Times BOOKreviews
“In this big, splashy Hollywood-based novel, Collins resurrects one of her favorite characters, the hard-edged, rich, talented, and beautiful Lucky Santangelo…Collins fans, and fans of the genre, will be clamoring for this one.” —Booklist
“Pure joy from beginning to end.”—Daily Express
“Drop Dead Beautiful marks Collinss 25th entry in a genre she helped to refine and raise to new heights. How fitting that this silver-anniversary publication celebrates her most popular character, a woman who lives by her wits but knows how to use her sexuality in equal measure. This is one author who knows her audience and doesnt disappoint. Each storyline is equally engrossing, which is a rarity, and zips the reader along through the ins and outs of big money dealings and high-stakes showdowns. What more could one want from a summer read?”
