Passions

Passions is a humorous look at the high-flying world of Parisian haute couture designers, foreign correspondents, political intrigue, and the demands of the big egos involved. Vidal Sassoon says "Barney Leason has succeeded in bundling the boudoir aerobics...with the not-so-haute couture behavior behind the scenes of legendary Paris fashion houses into a tidy package for Passions." "Barney Leason knows the fashion business from the inside..." (James Brady, former publisher of Women's Wear Daily) Author Veteran reporter Barney Leason has brilliantly portrayed the elite worlds of the rich, privileged and powerful in his best-selling novels, Rodeo Drive, Scandals, Passions and Grand Illusions. As a writer and roving correspondent in Europe, Leason has seen, heard, and once again tells it all. A new novel, Grand Cru, is due out in early 2001 under the Forge imprint.
