Review:

Fizzes and froths like a champagne fountain; in its wickedly drawn world of grotesques and gigolos even murder has a certain style * Saga * The book is full of sun, sin, sex, scandal and humour * Bella * Sun, sex and lots of delicious scandals from the queen of glam * Heat * Fabulously witty ... If you fancy a side serving of sin with your summer reads, this might just be your guilty pleasure * OK Magazine * The actress's trademark humour shines through in this fabulously over-the-top novel * Hello! * Racy, funny and completely over the top. I loved it -- Andrew Pierce * Daily Mail *
