Nobody wrote glamorous bad behavior quite like Jackie Collins.
Published in 1986, Hollywood Husbands delivered everything readers expected from a Jackie Collins blockbuster: wealth, ambition, betrayal, scandal, power struggles, and characters who rarely made sensible decisions when a dramatic one was available instead.
The novel became an international bestseller and helped cement Collins as the undisputed queen of glamorous escapist fiction. Her books pulled readers behind the gates of Beverly Hills and into a world of movie stars, producers, socialites, and beautiful people behaving terribly.
What makes Jackie Collins endure is that she understood exactly what she was selling. The books weren't realism—they were fantasy, excess, and pure entertainment wrapped in gold foil and shoulder pads.
