A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

Lovers is pure Krantz, an  intoxicating dance of love lost, stolen, and found  among women and men who lure each other with potent  combinations of money, talent, ambition, and  passion. Chief among them is irresistible Gigi Orsini,  the high-spirited, merry, adventurous creature who  grew up into enchanting womanhood in Scruples Two.  Now Gigi is working as a copywriter in a new Los  Angeles advertising agency, with her creative  "teammate," David Melville, a brilliant young  art director who joins her in seeking new  accounts. The agency is headed by dashing Archie Rourke,  humorous Byron Bernheim and the severely difficult  beauty, Victoria Frost, daughter of the famed  Millicent Frost Caldwell who, with her husband Angus  Caldwell, owns one of New York's largest  advertising agencies. Ben Winthrop, a proper Bostonian and  an enormously successful mall builder, attempts to  capture Gigi's quicksilver affections, although  his fierce contenders for the same prize include  both David Melville and the dominating film director,  Zach Nevsky. Meanwhile, Billy Winthrop Ikehorn  Orsini Elliott, the unforgettably impulsive heroine  of Scruples, and her new husband,  the great charmer, Spider Elliott, are busy with  their own fascinating lives, as are Gigi's father,  canny film producer Vito Orsini, and her best  friend, the ravishing Sasha Nevsky, none of whom can  be forgotten from Scruples and  Scruples Two. Lovers  completes all the stories set in motion in the  first two novels, yet it stands entirely on its own  as a slice of life in the exciting years of 1983  and 1984.

Quatrième de couverture

The author of Till We Meet Again and Dazzle, Judith Krantz, has firmly consolidated her rise to fictional stardom. Since her phenomenal bestseller, Scruples, was published seventeen years ago, she has created a gallery of fascinating women. Now, in the story of Gigi Orsini, she captures perhaps her most irresistible heroine...

Few American women are as ripe for adventure as Gigi Orsini in the booming, optimistic year of 1983. In her mid-twenties, Gigi is an original: as amusingly naughty as she is romantic, as personally courageous as she is sexually alluring.

A talented copywriter, Gigi has just accepted a job at a Los Angeles advertising agency where she is teamed with a tenderly seductive art director. But the three owners of the agency include two ambitious bachelors and one powerful woman whose irrational hatred for Gigi turns her into a dangerous adversary. As Gigi's life veers in a new direction she finds herself facing enormous demands and challenges. Never have the passionate practitioners of the business of advertising been unmasked so nakedly as Gigi is drawn into a whirlwind of desire, betrayal - and perilous love.

Moving quickly from California to New York, from Venice to Paris, from Montana to Malibu, Lovers is a fast-paced, unexpectedly adventurous, and dangerously erotic tale by the incomparable Judith Krantz.
