Review

'LUXURY oozes glamour, wealth and scandal - a fantastic debut *****' --Company

'Twists and turns and everything you need to keep you glued... Just the thing to pack on a long flight or train journey' --Adele Geras

'Manhattan penthouses and exotic islands are the glitzy settings in this blockbuster debut. Deliciously indulgent' --Marie Claire

'Jessica Ruston is bringing back sexy moguls, reckless glamour-pusses and moneyed decadence in a way we didn't think was possible... It's what long-haul flights were made for' --Elle

'Pure escapism for a rainy weekend - a real page-turner!' --Woman



Product Description

A scandalously good look at life lived in the lap of Luxury

Sexy, smart New Yorker Logan Barnes knew how to take what he wanted to get where he wanted to be. But you can’t win the girl, make the money and live the high life without picking up enemies along the way...

There’s only one enemy who matters, and that’s the friend Logan betrayed years ago – Nicolo Flores. He got mad, but better still he got even, waiting in the wings to pull the plug on Logan and see his fortunes come crashing down.

Now Logan’s back, in London with a perfect wife, perfect family, and the perfect jewel to crown his rebuilt hotel empire: a stunning island getaway for the truly über-rich. Nicolo’s crazy to find a way to crush him again – but with gambling, addiction, sex and scandal all knocking on the Barnes’ family door, maybe they’ll destroy themselves before he even has a chance to...

5.0 out of 5 stars Hilariously Lavish and Over the Top, 18 Aug 2009
By J. M. Young "Josa Young" (London, England) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Luxury (Hardcover)
The title is correct for this book - all the appurtenances of luxuriousness for gorging on in the privacy of your individual, lace-trimmed, beach cabana with hot and cold running sun-glasses polishers. I loved all the descriptions of absurd comforts, the beach with under-sand cooling was a favourite - and wonderful parties, clothes, delicious food and drink - I did worry about the figures of the heroines when exposed to so much temptation. But in fiction you can enjoy both an appetite and a perfect figure. Having been to Necker Island and slept in Mr Branson's bed (alone I hasten to add) I have to mention that Necker is not a PATCH on Luxury - perhaps someone will be inspired to bring Ms Ruston in to advise on true luxury when they next invest in a desert island. A rollicking read which reminded me of early Jackie C in that the characters were all despicable, but enjoyably so.

5.0 out of 5 stars Exciting, compelling read, 31 Jul 2009
By S. J. Harman - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Luxury (Hardcover)
It seems an age since I read something so unashamedly, errr, luxurious? And exciting. And BIG. Big characters, big glamour, big stories that sweep decades, with loads of revenge and sex. It reminds me of yonks back when I used to read Penny Vincenzi, Jackie Collins, Jilly Cooper et al, before they made way for all the insipid single girl chick-lit with pastel covers. It's like watching Dynasty after the Eastenders omnibus.

Intelligently written and utterly compelling - perfect holiday read, or something to devour whilst curled up in an armchair on a wet weekend.

5.0 out of 5 stars If you need to escape the real world, you should do so in Luxury., 31 Jul 2009
This review is from: Luxury (Hardcover)
I have just finished reading Luxury, it didn't take me long as I could not put it down, honestly!

I don't normally write reviews, but I had to about this book as it was pure escapism.

The characters were great and each individual was so well described, with a full history that it felt like I was reading books within books.

The story was so well thought out, that unlike many of the books I have read recently (and I read a lot) the conclusion had all of the ends tied up and I wasn't left with any unanswered questions.

The glamour and lives described are fabulous.

If you are looking for a good book to take you away or to take away with you, this is the book for you. It's a perfect holiday read, it's a perfect "My everyday life lacks excitement and riches" read, it is just a perfect read for anyone who likes gorgeousness, sex, scandal and romance.

I look forward to reading much more from this author in the future.

Absolutely brilliant!
