Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Outrageously compelling
Chances is the saga of the Santangelo family and follows Italian stallion Gino in his rise from tough street kid to millionaire gangster, as well as his wild daughter Lucky (possibly Jackie Collins' most beloved character) and her quest to make her father proud and Carrie a black socialite with a haunting past she's desperate to keep secret.

Perhaps not as literally adept as some of her contemporaries (although this particular novel was written in the late 70s so her style may have developed ... Read More



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Amazing!
If I could give Chances more than five stars I would! Chances is the first Jackie Collins book that I have ever read and I think that I started with the right one.
Chances takes you from 1913 all the way up to 1979 in a tale that begins with Gino Santagelo the infamous mob boss and his rise to power. Gino came from very humble begings, an abusive father, a mother who abandoned him at the sage of five and a damageing stint in a juvinle detention center yet managed to work his way up to owning two of ...

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - You can't put it down!
This gripping novel contains the 'usual' JK style but with a sprinkle of innocence. (As one of her earliest peices) The very beginning of Gino & Lucky, evidently written as she explores her own path of inspiration. Page after page of cleverly scripted material which delivers mind sharpening activity & real emotion like no other!
I have read nearly all of her novels, but this one is hard to match, let-alone beat! So Enjoy!



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - jackie collins chances

Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Chances
After reading this book in secondary school, it had an impact on my life that I could never imagine. It is the sort of book that you could read again and again. I am now re-reading the same book for the god knows how many times.
Jackie Collins is very straight-forward in her wording and has definitely made this saga of books her best by far.
After reading the first book in the series, the others just seemed to follow very naturally. Now that Jackie Collins has been writing for a long time, sometimes ... Read More
