Product Description
Product Description
She was born Princess Marguerite Alexandrovna Valensky. But everyone called her Daisy. She was a blonde beauty living in a world of aristocrats and countless wealthy. Her father was a prince, a Russian nobleman. Her mother was an American movie goddess. Men desired her. Women envied her. Daisy's life was a fairy tale filled with parties and balls, priceless jewels, money and love. Then, suddenly, the fairy tale ended. And Princess Daisy had to start again, with nothing--except the secret she guarded from the day she was born.

the most fascinating book i've ever read
10 May 1998
Format:Mass Market Paperback
I never expected Princess Daisy to be as good of a read as it was. They story is captivating and the herione, Daisy makes you want to be her. Krantz's descriptions of the places in the novel are so wonderful that you feel as though you were right there. All the different characters in this book seem to all have a little secret and it just makes you want to read more and more to uncover it. If you have never read a romance novel before, I would recommend that you read this novel. This is probably my favorite book because of the unique way Krantz presents the story along with her detailed descriptions of everyone and everything in the book. I enjoyed this book so much that i went and bought the miniseries.

Excellent author, excellent story, excellent read!
5 Jun 1999
Format:Mass Market Paperback
I admit it, i 'judge a book by it's cover'. That is the reason i first picked up "Princess Daisy", the cover was beautiful. The story turned out to be equally compelling. The key to a good book is making you feel like you are in the story, and making the characters and their situations seem real. Krantz does this wonderfully. I was captured by the story of Daisy, her life, her struggles, and her triumphs. When i reached the last chapter, i was extremely disappointed. I didn't want the story to end! I read this last chapter over and over, and i hoped for a sequel. I highly recommend reading this novel to anyone who enjoys reading about romance, adventure, and mystery; this book has it all, and pulls it off well.

A CLASS ACT
21 July 2005
Format:Mass Market Paperback
Princess Margaret Alexandrovna Valensky, AKA Daisy, has it all: loving parents, a title preceding her name and money that grows on trees--until tragedy strikes. Before you can say, oh here we go again, Daisy's charmed life is turned upside down when she is forced to face a painful past... and an unsure future. Judith Krantz's fans can rest easy; the author's second outing after the megahit Scruples is a winner. PRINCESS DAISY is a compelling yarn of the rich and rotten, jam-packed with beautiful people, lavish settings, designer clothes and plenty of skin. Daisy and friends are an exciting bunch of characters; unidimensional, perhaps, but fun. Their world of champagne and caviar is a celebrated experience no matter what. Yes, Krantz spreads it thick on the over-the-top scale, but who cares. The novel works. It is as grand and as sinful as those secrets her heroine so desperately wants to hide. Go on, indulge, for PRINCESS DAISY is classy stuff in escapism fiction.-----Martin Boucher
