About this ebook
In Chances, Lucky grew up in a top crime family. In Lucky, she was married three times. And now, in Lady Boss, she takes on Hollywood and wins!
Featuring a brand new introduction from bestselling author, Julie Cohen, talking about what Jackie and her books mean to her!
'A galloping page-turner, full of Jackie Collins's signature sex and satire' JULIE COHEN
'Jackie Collins’s daring, unapologetic stroke of the pen, combined with her glorious wit, has single-handedly given creative license to new generations of authors and storytellers.' COLLEEN HOOVER
Panther Studios is the prize and Lucky Santangelo wants it. But Abe Panther won’t sell until she proves she has the guts to make it in Hollywood. Lucky never backs down from a challenge. She takes a chance and goes undercover. But no one is prepared for the shock waves that she sets off in Tinseltown.
Watch ‘Lady Boss: The Jackie Collins Story’, produced by multi-award winning production company Passion Pictures, directed by Laurie Fairrie.
There have been many imitators, but only ever one Jackie Collins. With millions of her books sold around the world, and thirty-one New York Times bestsellers, she is one of the world’s top-selling novelists. From glamorous Beverly Hills bedrooms to Hollywood movie studios; from glittering rock concerts to the yachts of billionaires, Jackie chronicled the scandalous lives of the rich, famous, and infamous from the inside looking out.
'A true inspiration, a trail blazer for women's fiction' JILLY COOPER
‘Jackie shows us all what being a strong, successful woman means at any age’ MILLY JOHNSON
‘Jackie will never be forgotten, she’ll always inspire me to #BeMoreJackie’ JILL MANSELL
‘What Jackie knew how to do so well, is to tell a thumping good story’ ROWAN COLEMAN
‘Here is a woman who not only wanted to entertain her readers, but also to teach them something; about the world and about themselves’ ISABELLE BROOM
‘Nobody does it quite like Jackie and nobody ever will’ SARRA MANNING
‘Jackie bought a bit of glitter, sparkle and sunshine into our humdrum existence’ VERONICA HENRY
‘Collins was saying that women didn’t have to centre round men, either in books or in life’ JESSIE BURTON
‘Jackie lived the Hollywood dream, but, she looked sideways at it, and then shared the dirt with her readers’ JULIET ASHTON
‘What radiates from her novels, is a sense that women are capable of great things’ ALEXANDRA HEMINSLEY

About the author
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!’
