They were three generations of magnificent red-haired beauties born to scandal, bred to success, bound to a single extraordinary man--Julien Mistral, the painter, the genius, the lover whose passions had seared them all. Maggy--Flamboyant mistress of Mistral's youth, the toast of Paris in the '20s. Her luminous flesh was immortalized in the paintings that made Mistral legendary. Teddy--Maggy's daughter, the incomparable cover girl who lived fast and left as her legacy Mistral's dazzling love child. Fauve--Mistral's daughter, the headstrong, fearless glory girl whose one dark secret drove her to rule the world of high fashion and to risk everything in a feverish search for love. From the '20s Paris of Chanel, Colette, Picasso and Matisse to New York's sizzling new modeling agencies of the '50s, to the model ward of the '70s, "Mistral's Daughter" captures the explosive glamour of life at the top of the worlds of art and high fashion. Judith Krantz has given us a glittering international tale as spellbinding as her other celebrated best-sellers, "Scruples," "Princess Daisy, I'll Take Manhattan," "Till We Meet Again," "Scruple" s Two, "Dazzle," and "Lovers."

Never before has Judith Krantz told a story as rich in heart and emotion as in this, her tenth novel, the story of two amazing women and the men they love, a tale of family love and loss, and a behind-the-scenes look at the inner workings of an auction house.

Eve de Lancel dared to bring endless scandal upon herself when she ran away from home to live in unrepentant sin, to win stardom singing in Paris music halls, to risk her life at the Front during World War I, to marry the Vicomte Paul de Lancel and become the greatest lady of Champagne.

The story of a temple of high fashion where the wealthy and chic sip champagne, browse and gossip. It is the dreamchild of the fabled Billy Ikehorn, whose ruthless search for fulfilment leads her from lover to lover. The author's other titles include Mistral's Daughter and Princess Daisy.

Exploring the depths of desire and emotional connection, this book delves into the complexities of love and the human experience. Characters navigate their innermost feelings, facing challenges that test their relationships and reveal profound truths about themselves. Themes of longing, sacrifice, and the transformative power of passion intertwine, creating a rich tapestry that resonates with readers. The narrative invites reflection on what it means to truly connect with others in a world filled with obstacles.

Scruples, Judith Krantz's electrifying, world wide bestseller appeared fifteen years ago and made book publishing history. Now that unforgettable story, a story that marks an era, a story that millions of readers wish had never ended . . . continues. Only a single night's sleep seperates the lives of the characters in Scruples from this mesmerizing sequel. Billy Ikehorn is a contemporary woman living on a grand scale. A self-made beauty and the exquisite owner of a fabled Beverley Hills boutique called Scruples and married to the Oscar-winning producer Vito Orsini. To those who only know her from afar, she seems to lead a dream existence, wrapped in all the power of glamout, riches, and success. Then a stranger arrives in Billy's life--Gigi Orsini, Vito's sixteen-year-old daughter by an early marriage. Independent, deeply interesting, street-smart, and enchantingly humorous, Gigi captures Billy's heart and sets in motion a train of utterly unexpected events. Life with Gigi hold both joy and pain for Spider Elliot and Valentine O'Neill, Billy's partners in Scruples. The many new freinds Gigi makes during the next five years will grow important to Billy in ways she could never have forseen. Scruples Two moves swiflty and unexpectadly, filled with breathtaking change, from California to New York to Paris, following two of the most fascinating and touching females in modern fiction, Billy Ikehorn and Gigi Orsini.
