Book excerpt: It all started with The World is Full of Married Men, the debut novel from global multi-million copy bestseller and literary superstar, Jackie Collins. *Includes a brilliant introduction from the wonderful Fanny Blake where she talks about what this book and Jackie means to her!* ‘Jackie was absolutely marvellous, she was lovely. She was a very, very good writer’ Jilly Cooper * David Cooper cheats on his wife. She doesn't cheat - and that suits him fine. Until the young and beautiful Claudia appears and David wants out of his marriage. But Claudia has different ideas - different dreams: To be a model, an actress, a star. And she'll do anything to make it. Just name a price. The World is Full of Married Men is a devastating exposure of the cut throat media business - the phony promises and the very real power of the casting couch . . . * Why everyone needs Jackie in their lives . . . ?No one does it better than Jackie' heat ‘The definition of a class act’ Graham Norton 'Scandalous. Outrageous. And completely fabulous!' Veronica Henry ‘Jackie to me was the best writer of those risqué, amusing, fun novels – full of Hollywood characters and lots of sex’ Barbara Taylor Bradford ‘That smart, talented and gorgeous woman paved the road for many of us so that we could experience a smoother journey . . . with or without heels’ Sandra Bullock
