Great, easy read. Picked up right where the first book left off. It was great to have some of the same characters all grown up, and see things through their perspective. Great summer book!

Just not the right book for me, couldn't really get into it.
This is the 2nd book in a current series of 6. A 7th is due to release sometime in 2010. This book was much easier to read than the first book, Chances. Events from the past were italicized so it was not confusing reading about the present and the events that already occurred. I am enjoying this series immensely and look forward to finishing out the series.

POWER, HUNGRY FOR PLEASURE... WILD, NOTORIOUS, TROUBLE... SHE'S... LUCKY
With the sensual grace of a panther, Lucky Santangelo prowled her Las Vegas

breathless suspense. From the decadent luxury of California, to Paris, New York
and a private Greek island, Lucky fought for her father's honor, for ruthless
triumph, for the wild card of a fabulous love. Her rivals; an ice-cold
Hollywood wife...a much-married heiress strung out on cocaine...a jaded
magnate hooked on power...a crazed hoodlum lusting for murder. But Lucky was a
gambIer and a lover, a woman who ruled her empire and pursued her man with the
potent Santangelo strength ... her way, on her terms, whatever the odds.

Another wonderful book from the Queen of Romance!
I loved this entire series. Strong female from Mafia family turned legitimate. Kind of historical fiction. This story has multiple story lines that are attached to the different characters. Collins jumps from one to the other, and sometimes very quickly. It keeps you on your toes. This book follows Lucky as she moves from being a partner with her father to becoming an independent hotel builder/owner on her own. She breaks away from Gino when he marries a gold digger socialite and marries an older man. He's very rich - kind of a take on Onassis, and with his money she builds a hotel of her own. She also has a child and gets close with her father again after he realizes he married a frigid woman who was actually gay and he should have listened to his daughter. She also falls in love with a comedienne but abandons the affair because they are both married - although unhappily.
Note: The book's cover is worn but in tact. I reinforced it with a piece of tape on the bottom of the spine.

Jackie Collins is Great! This is the 2nd book in the Santagelo series. The main events of the 1st book are reviewed and then the story continues! I can't wait to read the rest of them. Great book, exciting, spicy and fun.
Lucky is back, looking for power and pleasure.
The best Jackie Collins book that I have read.
Classic Collins. Raunchy, funny, and rude.
The New York Times called Lucky "a brash and suspenseful story. Crammed with beautiful people scheming to advance themselves..Miss Collins is at her raunchy best when describing the collisions between rivals at parties or in bedrooms. She also excels at pacing her narrative, which races forward, mirroring the frenetic lives chronicled with wit."
brepetitive and boring. I don't recommend it.
