Jackie Collins’ fierce and wildly beautiful heroine Lucky Santangelo is back with a vengeance—in a novel full of power, passion, revenge, and the raging family dynamics of the Santangelo clan—and, as always, Lucky comes out on top. Lucky runs a high profile casino and hotel complex, The Keys in Vegas. Lennie, her movie star husband, is still writing and directing successful independent movies, while Max, her stubborn and gorgeous teenage daughter is about to celebrate her 18th birthday, and her son, Bobby, owns a string of hot clubs. Lucky has everything. Family. Love. Life. And everything is exactly what billionaire businessman Armand Jordan is determined to take from her one way or the other. Born a Prince in the small but affluent Middle Eastern country of Akramshar, Armand comes to America with his American mother at an early age, and rises to become a real estate business titan. Armand regards women as nothing more than breeding mares or sexual playthings, so when his people inform him that the one property he covets more than anything, The Keys, is not for sale, he is shocked. That a mere woman would dare to turn down his offer to buy The Keys is unthinkable, and Armand vows to force Lucky’s hand whatever it takes. And so the battle for power begins . . . Meanwhile Bobby is dealing with shady Russian investors, while his girlfriend—smart and independent Denver Jones—is becoming a Deputy D.A. in the L.A. drug unit.And Max, Bobby’s seventeen year old sister, is busy embarking on a forbidden affair with a sexy young movie star. An affair they have to keep on the down-low lest Lucky finds out.The word is that “what happens in Vegas stays in Vegas” and what happens in Goddess of Vengeance will blow your mind!

The plot is ridiculous, the characters are one dimensional but I can't get enough of these guilty pleasure reads.I had only read about 30% before the weekend and managed to blow through the rest by Sunday. You know you're not going to get a literary masterpiece and I always loved that Jackie Collin...
Meh not too bad Max is one of the most irritating characters ever. Her and her friends are just a waste.Paige...no not coolLucky vs the Prince was pretty goodNice build up on the end Love Denver and Bobby but wow were they annoying with that back and forth
Jackie does Hotel Babylon!Anyone looking for classic Jackie should avoid this book as I'd say it's for diehard fans of JC and Lucky only. I enjoyed it mostly for Lucky who is such a fantastic character (though the Lucky/Lennie soul mates thing seems too good to be true most of the time). There was j...
Very disappointing considering how good the early Santangelo books were. I'm currently reading Lucky and its ten times better than Goddess of Vengeance. I loved its predecessor Poor Little Bitch Girl and was excited to see all the characters back again, plus more focus on Lucky who I love. Unfortuna...
