The book that introduced the world to Lucky Santangelo, offered in a special, two-part audio adaptation read by Jackie Collins—the unforgettable saga of the woman who conquered Las Vegas in Lucky and became Hollywood's top Lady Boss, the hot-blooded beauty who millions of readers know as a gambler, a lover, and a woman who's never afraid to take chances.

Now in this intimate recording, Jackie Collins takes you further into the fast-lane world of Lucky Santangelo than ever before. Listen for yourself as she delivers a superstar performance that captures all of the passion and breathless suspense that have made her the undisputed queen of glamorous fiction.©1991 Jackie Collins; (P)1991 Simon and Schuster, Inc.

Great story but not for delicate people.

That’s just how it was. If you’re only interested in a story where everyone is treated fairly, no one is misunderstood, history is changed and sterilized to meet today’s standards, everyone gets a medal for just being alive, then this isn’t the book for you. Bad behavior, language and misdeeds are laid bare without apology but certainly not glorified. It’s just raw I read it in high school back in the 90’s and I went back for more now in my late 40’s and the only disappointing part about it is that it’s abridged and JC is not the best narrator LOL

Loved it!

Loved the story line and the fact it was read by none other than Jackie Collins! On to part 2!

Audible censors

Love the uncensored book. Audible took out a ton of sections. Should offer both versions. Too bad.

Uabridge

I’d love to hear the unabridged versions of both books. Lucky and Chances. Both are favorites.

I didn't like the child sex abuse.
I didn't like him marring his x lover daughter.
