Lucky Santangelos is the daughter of a once very powerful
Italian Don. Though the years Lucky has made a lot of
decisions in her life that have affected many people
including her family. Lucky is married to Lennie, a movie
producer. They have had their ups and downs, but have
always tried to put family first.
Lucky receives a phone call that her father has been
murdered.
Lucky is in shock, but knows what needs to be done. Find
the murderer and get her revenge. So many suspects.. her
step-mother and other powerful Italian families. Could it
be
someone seeking revenge against her or perhaps her father?
Only time will tell.
Jackie Collins series about Lucky and her family has been
one
of my favorites. Could it be because I am Italian? I am
sure that that is part of it, but I also feel any one
would enjoy this book along with the other ones in the
series. I have always joked with my family that I wish I
had
been an Italian princess. By reading Jackie Collins'
books,
I can put myself in Lucky's shoes and dream about it.
Not
that I would seek revenge, like Lucky did, but that
doesn't
mean THE SANTANGELOS isn't a great book just the same.
There are several characters in this series that carry
though all of the books. Even if you have never read any
of
the other ones, it is not hard to figure out who belongs
to
whom. I like that anyone can pick up THE SANTANGELOS and
start reading without reading the other books in the
series. Jackie Collins just keeps
getting better and better.
Read THE SANTANGELOS, enjoy a glass of wine and put
yourself
in her shoes.
