The book introduces many beautiful, but mean-spirited people stepping on each other to make it to the top. Some drug use, and plenty of sex...fairly graphic sex. Many of the characters aren't very likeable and at times I wondered if there was a plot. Take a peek into the lifestyles of NY models, South Beach's trendy set, and Miami's high society. Somehow it all pulls together at the end and there was a plot afterall.
I could have skipped some of the descriptions of her "triangle of love" and rhapsodies about women's rumps, "her butt alone could make slaves of people."
The main character are a retired fashion model starting her own agency (Christa Kenwood), a top Hispanic super-model, a wealthy socialite fighting her age, her hunk of a tennis instructor, and a Pulitzer prize winning author. Set up three overlapping, interlocking love-triangles and then take the rest of the book to sort it out. To add some extra suspense, the former agency for Christa and the super-model wants revenge for their defection.
