This book was very entertaining. I love Jackie Collins. This book was somewhat similar to Chances. It had love, sex, surprise, crime... and more. Great story.

Sex, love, and music are the backdrop for this story of Red Diamond, rich, cruel father, and his three sons, Chris, Max, and Jett, whose lives are decent despite him. The estranged sons are called to New York by Red and end up bonding with each other and working through their crises while fighting off the sadistic actions of their father. Isabel Keating brings the passion of Collins' story to the fore, along with its main and secondary characters, all of whom hope for better lives. Keating portrays the ups and downs of the Diamonds' encounters and entanglements while spinning out Collins' subplots.

The Diamond family rules in this novel and Red Diamond, a much-loathed billionaire, summons his three sons, Max, Chris, and Jeff to New York for a family meeting that will rock their world. This is a love story about family relationships and deadly choices.

This is typical Jackie Collins. Some characters you love others you want to crush to a pulp. This is a page turner indeed!

Love Jackie Collins but this was a bit slow going. Good story and mix-up of family.
