    About this ebook

    ”Sex-filled, escapist, utterly unpretentious.” – New York Times

    Jackie Collins beckons you to experience the hottest, wildest domain of pleasure-seekers in 1969 London in The Stud, where the desires and dalliances of the wife of a billionaire financier bring new meaning to the word debauchery.

    Former supermodel Fontaine Khaled needs more in her life than just being arm candy to her wealthy Arab businessman husband, Benjamin Khaled. A one-time jetsetter who traveled the world for thrills, she’s climbing the walls to find the excitement her senior citizen spouse just can’t provide. Sure, she spends his money and most of her time on partying, shopping, and her hot new nightclub, Hobo. But what she really craves is a young, sensual man who can deliver the goods. . . and the new manager of the club is ready to deliver.

    Tony Blake comes from the wrong side of the tracks but has been quickly scaling the ladder of social status thanks to his good looks, charm, and a body that won’t quit. Self-described as a taller Tony Curtis with a touch of Michael Caine and Kris Kristofferson thrown into the mix, Tony can—and does—sleep with anyone who can bring him to the next level, including his sexy, insatiable boss. Fontaine knows he gets around, but she doesn’t care . . . until Tony becomes enamored with the one woman he’d do best to stay away from. Now Tony’s days of being Fontaine’s stud—and staff—are numbered as he’s about to learn a hard lesson in lines that should never be crossed.

    Told in the voices of these decadent and daring characters, The Stud is a fast, racy romp that’s sure to delight!

    Jackie Collins

    Jackie Collins has been called a “raunchy moralist” by the director Louis Malle and “Hollywood’s own Marcel Proust” by Vanity Fair. With over 500 million copies of her books sold in more than forty countries, and with thirty-two New York Times bestsellers to her credit, she is one of the world’s top-selling novelists. Six of her novels have been adapted for film or TV. Collins was awarded an OBE (Order of the British Empire) by the Queen of England in 2013 for her services to literature and charity. When accepting the honor she said to the Queen, “Not bad for a school drop-out”—a revelation capturing her belief that both passion and determination can lead to big dreams coming true. She lived in Beverly Hills where she had a front-row seat to the lives she so accurately captured in her compulsive plotlines. She was a creative force, a trailblazer for women in fiction, and in her own words “a kick-ass writer!” Her fascinating life as a writer and icon is explored in the CNN Films and Netflix documentary Lady Boss: The Jackie Collins Story.

      prettty shallow. not much story line to it.
    • 5/5
      A fun, sexy book. Jackie always wrote books that are for women. This one does not disappoint! She is deeply missed by me!
    • 4/5
      Raw, racy and rambunctious, this novel is funny, fast-paced and incisive. I would never have read Collins if a friend wasn't a fan. I was expecting saccharine melodrama, not satire. The characters float through the unexpected, trying to remain cynical throughout but Collins does a great job of showing the chink in the armour, making the protagonist a likeable one, naive and soft in his own way, despite his bravado and conceit.Full of pizzazz and 70s glamour, this book was a crisp and quick read which I definitely enjoyed!

      A uni forced read, this book was categorised as a "sex-and-shopping" novel. Now, that's also the term used for chick lit, so I was intrigued. Did I have here the grandmother of all chick lit? Uhm, no. It's a fast romp and reads like the gossip column of Hello! magazine. Which isn't a bad thing in and of itself. What I didn't like about it was the fact that in the end, nothing changed. If you shuffled the names around a bit, and replaced the names of places, you could just slpa the last chapter in front of the first chapter, and off you go again. no one's learned a leson, changed or grown as a result of the story's little twists and jabs. I also don't like glamour novels in general, so this book was off on a bad start. Still, it's not nearly as horrible as our lecturer makes it out to be.
