the one who killed his brother he decides to get revenge. Sergei works with Cruz, a master pirate, in
hopes of getting revenge by pirating The
Bianca and their guests for ransom.
The Power Trip is exactly what I hope for when reading a
Jackie Collins book. Although the story
was different than her others (which I love), it was just as amazing. There were a lot of characters to get to know
at the beginning, but they were easy to keep straight and really easy to get to
know. I could instantly decide if I
loved or hated each character. The
Senator was my hated character. A man
who is that two-faced just doesn’t deserve any respect from anyone and Hammand
was the most two-faced person I had ever read about. I was torn between my most loved
character. I really liked Taye. He put up with a lot of verbal abuse from his
wife, but never stepped out or gave up on his family. I also really liked Flynn. He told it exactly as it was. Then when he went into action after the
pirates, he showed how amazing he really was.
Jackie Collins has outdone herself. I was so caught up in this book and its
characters my husband actually asked if I was almost done with it. Jackie knows exactly how far to push the hot
and sexy without going too far. Every
detail adds just the right touch to the story.
The ending was so very unexpected, with loose ends that seem to lead to
a possible sequel.
This just might be one of my favorite books of 2013. Jackie Collins has shown she has what it
takes to still draw in readers. I loved
this book and am sure all my friends will read it and love it also.
