Book Description

June 10, 2008
The international bestseller! The book beaches were made for!

When New York billionaire Adam Gold moves to London, every red-blooded woman wants to get him into bed...and down the aisle.

Karin is a successful fashion entrepreneur and London's most glamorous socialite. Her name is synonymous with style and class, and Adam Gold could be her perfect accessory -- but can the whispers surrounding her ex-husband's death keep her from her prize?

Erin, a young, naïve country girl with literary aspirations, never dreamed of traveling in such lofty social circles until she finds herself in the role of Adam's personal assistant and protégé. As her sights grow higher, the promise of riches, and lust for her handsome boss, threaten everything she once valued.

Molly, a fading eighties supermodel, can't seem to leave her glory days, or her expensive drug habit, in the past. Ultracompetitive, unabashedly ruthless, Molly will risk everything to secure the man who may be her last chance at marriage.

Summer, Molly's daughter, is an innocent beauty living in the shadow of her famous mother. When she lands a television deal and becomes the latest "it girl," Adam Gold takes notice.

From Monte Carlo to Lake Como, St. Moritz to St. Barts, Gold Diggers takes a heady journey through the social circuit of the superrich into a world of sizzling passion, ruthless ambition and scorching betrayal.

Editorial Reviews

From Booklist

Anyone who has ever pored over a celebrity tabloid will find Perry’s latest just as ridiculously and deliciously captivating. Set in London, this novel follows a group of British socialites as they date and marry their way to the top. The social scene is sent into a tailspin when highly eligible billionaire developer Adam Gold arrives. The first to snare him is Karin, a wealthy young widow and designer-clothing entrepreneur. But she’s got competition in the form of past-her-prime supermodel—and accomplished gold digger—Molly and her ingenue daughter, Summer. Even Adam’s naive assistant, Erin, is enamored of both her playboy boss and his lavish lifestyle. Perry weaves a tale of glamour and debauchery, swanky parties, and sex as a rung on the social ladder. In this follow-up to Daddy’s Girls (2007), the British author delivers another beach-bag staple and proves she’s mastered escapist fiction. --Aleksandra Walker

5.0 out of 5 stars fun summer read, June 23, 2008
By 
Diana "lawyerlee" (Lawrence, Kansas USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Gold Diggers: A Novel (Paperback)
Gold Diggers is a fun walk through a world most of us will only ever dream about - that of rich, beautiful & privileged Londoners.

The book ranks right up there with some of my favorite British chic lit, such as titles by Jane Green and Marian Keyes, but Perry gives her story a nice Sex & the City-like treatment.

It's really the perfect thing to throw in your bag for vacation this summer.

3.0 out of 5 stars hated myself but could't put it down, September 29, 2008
By 
This review is from: Gold Diggers: A Novel (Paperback)
Picked it up at a B&B in Tuscany - hid it from my husband - put a brown cover on it for the airplane flight - embarrassed but read it to the end. Characters are terribly cliched, the sex scenes predictable; I guess the fun part was the locations and the view of life at the top of the social heap.

2.0 out of 5 stars A struggle, December 7, 2010
This review is from: GOLD DIGGERS. (Hardcover)
Haven't finished this yet. Nearly threw the trowel in after just a few pages, when I read that someone lived in 'Eton Square', London, when it's Eaton Square. Such a little error but annoying, as it implies the author doesn't really know what she's writing about and hasn't bothered to check.

I am vaguely enjoying what I'm reading, but another bug bear is that all the character's surnames are ridiculously posh; Cavendish, Devereaux, Gold, even if they are not.

Seems to me some authors write about the lives of the rich and famous without knowing anything about them. Yet, with authors like Jilly Cooper, I really get the impression she has inhabited this world and is writing from experience and not speculation.
