This book didnt really come out to me. It was an alright book, but definantly not one of my favorites. Save your money for chances, and the whole santangelo books!

THE BITCH is the story of two characters: Nico Constantine who married into wealth at a young age, and Fontaine Al Khaled, who also married into wealth. Both of them are single by the time they meet accidentally on an airplane. Instant attaction....

The novel of course has several subplots weaving in and out, with lots of gratuitous sex and outrageous plot twists. But that's expected from a Jackie Collins novel. Nico finds he's dead broke and spends the rest of the novel trying to get himself out of this mess (big time gambling debt). Fontaine in the meantime is trying to rejuvenate her London night club, while at the same time ignores all advances from Nico, although deep down she is very attracted to him.

For a quick light read and some trashy writing, THE BITCH is recommended.

This was much better than The Stud, but still not good. I just wasn't into the plot, and the characters were too generic and boring for you to really care about them.

Read this and The Stud when you have read all other Jackie Collins novels. It seemed this novel was trying to do for Fontaine what Lucky would later do for Lucky Santangelo.

Sequel to Collins 'The Stud', this one sees her heroine Fontaine Khaled pitted against the wits of another high-flyer - the hard gambling Nico. A light, raunchy, entertaining page turner.

This book is a very fast read. It's certainly better than The Stud which is the first book to have these characters. It's only a little over 200 pages and the language and actions are a little dated. if you a fan of jackie collins, you would like this book. if you are not and a first timer, be careful and try one of her more famous books such as hollywood wives or something of that matter.

Taking off where Jackie Collins' "The Stud" left the reader, this one continues the adventures of Fontaine Khaled trying to save her failing disco
and her fatalistic meeting with life-gambler Nico,
a kindrid spirit. Plenty of action in casinos, discos, bedrooms and showers(!) will keep you entertained. Fans should check out the movie
"The Bitch" with Joan Collins in the title role.

Of all the Collins' books I've read, this is one of my least favorites. I just didn't care for the two main characters. However, some of the dialogue did make me laugh out loud. It is a very quick read.
