 Trashy but good November 13, 2008
This more than lived up to its promise to be a trashy sexy summer read. It's perfect beach fodder and should be read with this in mind: don't expect anything more than that. Its biggest flaw however was the ending, which was rushed and entirely unsatisfying. I also didn't particularly bond with any of the characters but Billie and Liza's lives provided most of what the book had to offer; Kelly Anne was my least favourite because of all of them she was the dullest. Overall though, it still deserved 4 stars for its entertainment value and keeping me interested with plenty of sex and drama.
 Disappointment November 13, 2008
I have totally waste my time reading this book! I thought about giving up half way through but persevered. The characters were dull, the story line did not read well, and the ending was terrible....definitely not a nice uplifting book to take away for a beach read! Thoroughly disappointed!
 ok BUT a bit disappointing.... November 11, 2008
After reading the 1st few pages i couldn't wait to read the whole story.
The story begins at the end, so i was eager to read on...
The characters were ok, the book is VERY raunchy! However i do believe that this is the only resemblance to the great 'Jackie Collins'...
Like i've said in previous reviews if i start a book i always finish it. Unlike a lot of the books i have reviewed i WANTED this book to end! A lot of the chapters were very boring, and i actually found myself skipping pages.
I thought the ending was a little too rushed as well.
Read it for yourself though and see what you think...
A great holiday read October 27, 2008
Really enjoyed this book, it's an easy, holiday read and I found it to be a real page turner. I think some people are looking into it a bit too much. If you want something a bit more high-brow i'd suggest you don't get this. Perhaps previous negative reviewers were expecting a bit too much from a book with a trashy name and a picture of a half-naked woman on the front! That said, it is a clever and well written book and I will look out for the next book.
 Hard going... September 22, 2008

Read this whilst on holiday and found it really hard going! Not one that i got into which was a shame as it had been highly recommended!
