Beschreibung

Hollywood seems to be all glittering premieres, dazzling movie sets, and fabulous parties, but underneath the glamour and gloss is the seamy, sultry underbelly that Jackie Collins so masterfully exposes in the shocking, passionate world of Sinners!London-trained actress Sunday Simmons dreams of better acting jobs than the current film she's in with top leading man Jack Marlin. Her only scene is entirely topless, which makes her feel cheap and exploited. She doesn't realize, though, that the worst is still ahead. Sunday has become the main object of frustrated limo driver and star stalker Herbert Lincoln Jefferson's most depraved fantasies. . . and he will stop at nothing to make those fantasies come true. At one time, actor Charlie Brick was at the top of his game, with women throwing themselves at him-especially those yearning for stardom. Marriage be damned, he took every opportunity presented to cheat. Except now, he pines for his wife, Lorna, who finally had enough and left him taking their two children-then quickly remarried.Desperate and destroyed, Charlie's failures spiral him into rampant drug use before meeting starlet Dindi Sydne and marrying her in an alcoholic haze. But what seems like redemption might quickly flip into a painful mid-life reckoning as especially in Hollywood, things are rarely as they seem. . . With everything from sex cults to acid trips in the desert, this fast-paced, page-turning, raucous romp does not disappoint! "e;After 42 years on the job, and with her patented blend of explicit sex and Hollywood gossip, Jackie Collins has become queen of a genre all her own. . . . Collins defines her characters well with authentic sounding dialogue."e; -Winnipeg Free PressAlready read Sinners? Try more by Jackie Collins. The Lucky Santangelo series1. Chances2. Lucky3.

Autor

There have been many imitators but only ever one Jackie Collins. The iconic British author was called 'the definition of a class act' by Graham Norton and a 'smart, talented and gorgeous woman who paved the road for many of us' by Sandra Bullock. With millions of her books sold in more than forty countries, and with thirty-one international bestsellers to her credit, she is one of the world's top-selling novelists. Her first novel, The World Is Full of Married Men, was published in 1968 and established Jackie as an author who dared to step where no other female writers had gone before. Jackie was awarded an OBE in 2013 for her services to literature and charity. When accepting the honour 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. Jackie Collins 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!'
