Présentation de l'éditeur
Cameron Paradise, a stunningly beautiful twenty-four-year-old personal trainer, flees Hawaii and her champion-surfer husband, Gregg, in the middle of one of his abusive tirades and makes her way to L.A. Tall, blond, with a body to die for, it doesn't take Cameron long to find a job at an exclusive private fitness club where she encounters LA's most important players. She has plans to open her own studio one day, and while every man she meets comes on to her, she is more focused on saving money and working hard than getting caught up in the L.A. scene of wild parties and recreational drugs.
Until she meets Ryan Lambert, an extremely successful independent movie producer. Ryan is married to overly privileged Mandy Lambert, the daughter of Hamilton J. Heckerling, a Hollywood power-player son-of-a-bitch mogul. Ryan has never cheated on his demanding Hollywood Princess wife, but when he meets Cameron, all bets are off, especially since she's seeing his best friend Don Verona, the devastatingly attractive talk-show-host and legendary player.
In her latest sizzling blockbuster, Jackie Collins explores what happens when lust and desire collide with marriage and power-and the results lead to murder.

Express 17/10
‘In these time of doom and gloom, with credit-crunch this and money-saving that, we all need a little something to cheer us up. So praise be indeed for the break in the clouds that is the new Jackie Collins bonkbuster. The queen of raunch returns with plenty of her trademark sex, scandal, sex, can and, um… some more sex. It follow the lives and loves of three of Hollywood’s most powerful couples, and while the characters are, of course, fictitious, we can’t help thinking some of them are more than a little inspired by the real deal. At the centre of the scandal is the amazingly named Cameron Paradise – a gorgeous fitness trainer who keeps the A-list at their peak in more ways than one. Naturally, behind all the bed-hopping there’s something sinister, and you just know the subplot of the teenage Russian prostitute is going to bite someone on the ass. It’s a mood elevator comparable to anything her characters indulge in.’
