SHE WORKS HARD FOR THE MONEY

The Carpetbaggers may be Harold Robbins' best-known novel, but LONELY LADY is hands down his most inventive. What a pro hand he has in penning a main character as JeriLee Randall's, an innocent used-up flower child who develops into a don't-mess-with-me powerful tigress bound to be taken seriously. The passage of the two is an unputdownable no holds barred romp of the user and the used, which, ironically, change roles as the story progresses. Is JeriLee the real victim ? Or is society ? Robbins makes this woman scorned plot a delight to the eyes and mind.-----Martin Boucher

THIS BOOK IS SO WONDERFUL. I COULD NOT PUT IT DOWN. I READ IT IN ONE DAY. THERE NEEDS TO BE MORE BOOKS LIKE THE LONELY LADY

ONE OF THE BEST

I have read plenty of books about love and hardships and this really kept my attention. I found the book to be full of character and spunk.

A CLASSIC !

Forget about the Pia Zadora flick. This novel is Robbins' classic of the 70s. You'll stay up all night reading the misadventures of JeriLee Randall as she desperately yearns to be taken seriously in a world where men rule. Jacqueline Susann would have loved this one (maybe that's why Robbins dedicated it to her). A genuine page-turner!!!
