Hollywood Husbands are hot...Hollywood Husbands are dynamic...Hollywood Husbands are sexy... Jack Python is the hottest Hollywood Husband of all. He rules nighttime T.V. and his controversial talk show burns up the ratings, while the women he encounters melt. With one expensive divorce behind him, and involved in a highly erotic affair with Oscar-winning actress Clarissa Browning, Jack Python has power, charisma, success, and money. But sometimes everything isn't enough. Howard Soloman, head of Orpheus Studios, is the man, the Hollywood King. Anything Howard wants, he gets. Including women. The sweet smell of power and Howard's street-smart style reels them in. Working for billionaire studio owner Zachary Klinger, a man with a whim of iron, Howard has problems enough. And if Howard can't deliver daytime soap megastar Silver Anderson at Klinger's command, he may lose his footing at the top of the heap. Though in Hollywood it's said that when you fall, you fall up -- from the top Howard has nowhere to go but down. Mannon Cable is a superstar. With great looks and a body to match, he is full of self-deprecating charm. Married briefly to gorgeous Whitney Valentine, who left him to become a television superstar, he was hit by the divorce where it really hurts -- his giant ego. Jack Python, Howard Soloman, and Mannon Cable have been competitive friends for years. Yet when Jade Johnson enters their lives, the least-expected one of the self-styled "Three Comers" may have finally met his match. Jade Johnson is a woman of the eighties. Strong, independent, a top New York model, she comes to L.A. for a series of million-dollar TV commercials. Jade is a dangerously beautiful woman with personal integrity and a mind of her own. The Hollywood game fails to impress her, but slowly, surely, she is sucked in. And, high roller that she is, if she must play, Jade will play to win. HOLLYWOOD WIVES,with its ten-million copy sales, and its spectacular success as a television mini-series, left Jackie Collins' devoted audience avid for the other side of the story. NOW HOLLYWOOD HUSBANDS GO ALL THE WAY!
but it was still worth the read. Jackie Collins always knows how to write a fast paced book,and this certainly is no exception. Hollywood Husbands main characters are: Jack Python, whose one hour weekly talk show is THE show to watch on tv; Howard Solomon is the head of Orpheus Studios and has a lot of power behind the camera; and Mannon Cable is an actor who is still in love with is ex wife Whitney, another super star in her own right. However, Mannon is currently married to a bimbo named Melanie-Shanna, who he married to make Whitney jealous. The plotlines revolve around these characters, with a cast of many others including a dynamic character named Silver Anderson. Her storyline alone makes this book a good read! I had a hard time getting into this book when I first started reading it. It wasn't that the pace was slow, but I couldn't figure out where the plot line was going. Too many characters to keep track of in the beginning, but I soon found myself immersed in the story lines. This may not be my favorite Jackie Collins novel, but I hope those of you who chose Hollywood Husbands as your first Jackie Collins novel try one of her better books, such as the Lucky Santangelo novels, and you'll see why Jackie Collins' fans are hooked.
This was the first Jackie Collins....

....book I ever read and I was hooked from that day! I love her way with words. She has a lot of talent and knows how to keep her readers faithful and hooked. I think the fact that she's spilling the beans on the real Hollywood is the real reason everyone loves her books so much. I was a fan the day I finished the last page of this book. HIGHLY recommend it.
