As a mom of two, getting through a press release can sometimes be difficult without a tantrum, sibling bickery etc. However when my copy of The Santangelo’s arrived I was sure to exhaust the little ones… it didnt take long before they were begging for sleep, and I couldnt be happier to pour myself a glass of wine, and tear into Jackie Collins’ latest novel.

Discussing Jackie Collins projects and writing tips was enlightening. We learned Ms. Collins employs a different desks for each project she works on. What great advice I thought to myself! Your less likely to run into writers block, and stay in character when each area has a theme dedicated to the project your working on.
Ending our two hour lucheon Jackie posed for pictures and autographed books for each of us.
Yes although little my daughter is fierce and reminds me of a much younger version of Max, so it was only natural me to request a autographed copy for my Gia Amelia.
Although I am an avid reader, I have never read any of Jackie Collins’ books. However, after seeing her on a British talk show and on “Watch What Happens Live”, I would love to read her latest book. She seems like she would be a blast to have lunch or a cocktail with.
I have never read Jackie Collins novels, but my sister is obsessed. I would love to start this series and see what they are about
I am a huge Jackie Collins fan. I only read her books (over and over until the next one). I am so excited for The Santangelos. I would so love to win a copy to kick-off my stay at home vacation! She is such an inspiration to girls and women around the world (and so is Lucky)!
I gotta admit I have not read any of her books, however, I have admired her for quite sometime. I’ve been wanting to get into reading some of her titles, maybe you can suggest me a few? I do love her style and the fact that she looks amazing for her age!

I don’t know how she keeps turning out page turners the way she does! What an interesting person with whom to have lunch and share some time. I am glad you highlighted this release – I am going to have to snag a copy on my way to the beach. This one looks really interesting. Glad you took some time to go meet and have lunch!
What an amazing experience for you!! I love to read and her books have always been great! I missed that she had a new one come out I need to go out and grab it.
What an exciting experience to meet Joan Collins. I loved her as an actress, but I have never read any of her books. And to think that I love this kind of novels. I will definitely look for her books.
Sorry, I have mistaken her with the actress Joan Collins. What am I thinking.
Wow I have seen so many awesome books that I want to add to my summer reading list and it looks like this will have to be another one! Also it is very cool that you were able to get a signed copy! Thanks so much for sharing, I am looking forward to reading this!
It has been a while since I had the time to read and finish an actual book. Now I think it’s better to have an audio book that I can listen to while driving to work. Hope to find an audible version of a Jackie Collins novel.
Oh, what a super fun event. I’ve heard only good things about Jackie Collins and I hate to publicly admit that I haven’t read any of her books yet but that may change soon. This sounds way juicy! I have to make the time.
I don’t think I have ever heard of Jackie Collins before. Her name isn’t ringing any bells or any of the books she has written. However, she seems to have a great collection of books and they sound awesome. I think I am gonna have to check her out and buy a book or more! Lol! I love reading so this is up my alley! Thank you so much for sharing! I love hearing about new authors.
I have never read any of Jackie Collins’ books. However, I can feel the excitement in your voice. I’d love to have lunch with my favorite author and get a signed copy of her book.
This looks like a such a fun event! I would have loved to go. I am an avid bookworm, but I’ve never read a Jackie Collins novel. I do love her tip for writing at a different desk to keep you in character of your book. That is such a great idea!!
I haven’t really read any of Jackie Collin’s books – but this looks like a really fun event. I saw her on Watch What Happens Live, too and I thought she was great! Love the comment she wrote in your book – so true! She has definitely accomplished a lot!
