This is a truly wonderful book I love the stories about Madison.... I love them more than any other Jackie Collins Novel I highly recommend this novel it is worth the reading a true gem in the wonderful world of Jackie Collins....

Deadly Embrace

This is another hit for Ms. Collins. Madison Castelli is the heroine in this story as she is involved in a hostage situation. Being a reporter, she is able to help the others and herself in this situation. As the gunman told her, "You have balls". Being the daughter of Michael Castelli, of course she does! Her handsome father, is accused of two killings, Madison's mother, Beth, and Stella, the woman who left him for a younger man. Michael has also gotten involved with people you don't say no to, the mob. His former boss, Vito Giovanni assisted him as he was acquitted of Beth's murder. As he made various trips to Las Vegas, he met a chorus gal, Dani, and they have had a distant relationship. Dani also has a son, Vincent, who is also Michael's son, but he doesn't find out until seventeen years later. As Jackie Collins has done so well in the past, she goes back and forth in time with the various chapters as we, the reader, put it all together. There are also at least five plots going on in the book, and somehow, everything fits together. There is enough of each story to keep you reading, and in Jackie's style, lots of sex and drugs. As usual, I could not put this, yet another great Jackie Collins' book down. This was 517 pages of great reading.

HANDS DOWN THE BEST BOOK I HAVE EVER READ!!!

I am a male reader who decided to give Jackie Collins a try. And boy she didn't disappoint! This book had everything I was looking for in a good read and more. It was so good that I had cut back on most of my activites just to finish it. Once you began reading you WILL NOT be able to put it down. It's fast-paced, exciting, and unpredictable. Michael Castelli/Castellino is the best character ever written. He's everything I wish I could be and more! I hope Collins writes more about him in the future. I am now buying all of Jackie Collins books, cause she has just recieved herself a new loyal fan in me.

I could not put it down !

I had such fun reading this book.I couldn't put it down.I had to find out about Madison.I even bought an extra copy for my girlfriend.'Can't wait for her next book.

Another Good Summer Read

It wouldn't be summer, without a Jackie Collins' book to read. Although I'm still hoping she will write another book about the Santangelos, Deadly Embrace did not disappoint me. Once again, her colorful characters come to life in this fast paced story. I enjoyed it very much. If you are a fan of Jackie Collins, you will not be disappointed......
