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 himâespecially 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 childrenâthen 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!
"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." â Winnipeg Free Press

There have been many imitators, but only ever one Jackie Collins!
The iconic author has been called a "raunchy moralist" by the late director Louis Malle and "Hollywood's own Marcel Proust" by Vanity Fair magazine.
With over half a billion copies of her books sold in more than forty countries, and with thirty-one New York Times bestsellers to her credit, she is one of the world's top-selling novelists.
From glamorous Beverly Hills bedrooms to Hollywood movie studios; from glittering rock concerts in London to the yachts of Russian billionaires, Jackie Collins chronicles the scandalous lives of the rich, famous and infamous from the inside looking out.
"I write about real people in disguise," she once said. "If anything, my characters are toned down - the truth is much more bizarre!"
Born in in London, England, her first novel, The World is Full of Married Men established Collins as an author who dared to step where no other female writer had gone before. She followed it with one successful title after another, including The Stud and The Bitch, both adapted into films starring her actress sister, Joan Collins. Jackie found her stride when she published Chances, the first installment in a sprawling family saga introducing the strong, sexy and powerful Lucky Santangelo. Soon after came the seminal 80s blockbuster, Hollywood Wives which was adapted into one of ABCs highest rated mini-series. Jackie continued on a wild writing streak, satisfying her devoted readers with hit after hit, including Lady Boss, Hollywood Kids, Poor Little Bitch Girl and The Power Trip among many others. Jackie was a long time supporter of AIDS Project LA, HIV & AIDS research and equality for the LGBT community. She was widely known for writing characters who reflected a whole spectrum of society.
Jackie was awarded an OBE (Order of the British Empire) by the Queen of England in 2013 for her services to literature and charity. When accepting the honor 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!
In addition to her long and lustrous career, Jackie valued her family above all else, including her three daughters and six grandchildren. She wrote every one of her manuscripts by hand, as well as being widely known for her photographic skills, constantly documenting family, friends and her celebrity circle.
Jackie died of breast cancer on September 19th 2015, six years after being given a stage 4 diagnosis, which she chose to keep private until the final weeks of her life. During that time, she continued to write five more books and traveled the world on yearly book tours. In her last interview before her death, Jackie said "I want people to see me as an example of strength - and doing things my way...'"
Jackie Collins was a creative force, a mentor and trailblazer in fiction, and an inspiration to all who knew her, in addition to the millions of readers whose lives she enriched through her novels for decades.
A compelling documentary about Jackie's life and trailblazing career - Lady Boss-The Jackie Collins Story, produced by Academy Award Winning Passion Pictures, CNN Films, BBC Arts & AGC productions - will be released in 2021.
