Chances (Lucky Santangelo #1) 
What a great start to a series by Jackie Collins. It is no wonder why she is one of my ultimate favorite authors of all time! I felt like I was watching a movie the whole time I was reading! This story had everything, Crime, sex, drugs, whores, pimps, lust, deceit, revenge, love, backstabbing and friendship. I really enjoyed the time setting of the story, having it begin in the early 20s I could picture Harlem and the people. This 1st book in the series is based mostly around Gino and his story

I skimmed this so fast I don't think I can claim to have read the whole thing, but wow. Finally I understand why Jackie Collins was such a star.
This wasn't one of her strongest for me unfortunately.The story was too long and the ending just got way too out of control. Another let down for me, was how many deaths were in this story.However, her characters once again were captivating. I'm just happy I have finally started the Lucky Santangelo series and I can not wait to see what the other books bring!
one of the best start to the family n the saga...love,love Lucky's swag...Gino!!! n the story begins. always loves JC style of writing, knows how to tell a good love story, good going....
Once again I read a book based on a Patrons love for it. Not so much THIS particular book was the patron interested in, mostly the author. Now, if many of my followers remember, I am a Librarian. I pretty much have heard of every author, popular or unpopular I have heard of them. So of course I have heard of Jackie Collins as it usually passes my desk every so often...by women of course, and all giddy to read it. I have heard that Jackie Collins write romance novels. ROMANCE novels. Not really

In my teens I found a dog-eared copy of Jackie Collins "Chances" laying on a park bench. I picked it up and started reading the story of Gino Santangelo. What started out as a boring afternoon became my introduction into adult fiction and my love for Jackie Collins.For three days straight everything in my life stopped. I read this book at breakfast, on the way to school, after school, while out with friends and I did my chores. I even hid it from my mom because I knew she would think the bookWhat a great start to a series by Jackie Collins. It is no wonder why she is one of my ultimate favorite authors of all time!
