Description

One of the glorious Rutshire Chronicles. Into the cut-throat world of Corinium television comes Declan O’Hara, a mega-star of great glamour and integrity with a radiant feckless wife, a handsome son and two ravishing teenage daughters. Living rather too closely across the valley is Rupert Campbell- Black, divorced and as dissolute as ever, and now the Tory Minister for Sport. Declan needs only a few days at Corinium to realize that the Managing Director, Lord Baddingham, is a crook who has recruited him merely to help retain the franchise for Corinium. Baddingham has also enticed Cameron Cook, a gorgeous but domineering woman executive, to produce Declan’s programme. Declan and Cameron detest each other, provoking a storm of controversy into which Rupert plunges with his usual abandon. As a rival group emerges to pitch for the franchise, reputations ripen and decline, true love blossoms and burns, marriages are made and shattered, and sex raises its (delicious) head at almost every throw as, in bed and boardroom, the race is on to capture the Cotswold Crown.

  • 6 stars!!
Love love loved it!!!! I loved the tv series and decided I just had to read the book, I wasn’t sure I was gonna like it or even be able to finish it with it being 700 or so pages! But it’s so worth it! I honestly could have read thousands of pages and never been bored. I love her writing style and the story is wonderful, and the romance is top tier!! ... show more

  • Fun
This book was both engrossing and fun, though rather long. It’s hardly great literature, but it’s more than a beach read. Dame Jilly writes very well and her descriptions of nature are lovely. Maybe she’s turned her talents to something more substantial since this book was published in the ‘80s? BTW, this has just been dramatized by Hulu. The series is kind of a mess…too many characters, etc…but good for Jilly! ... show more

  • Loved this book!
This is a grand, sweeping novel. The characters often do the most surprising and wonderful things, as they try to build a successful business, fight off rivals, and find love. There’s artistry, poetry, beautiful descriptions of the English countryside, and devastating treachery. It’s a big novel, lush, elegant, and lots of fun. ... show more

  • Sex, Drugs and Rock-n-Roll Baby !!!
Loved the sexual freedom we had in the late 70s and all of the 80s. This was the time for all Baby Boomers to have the time of their lives. Too bad they grew up and then imposed their own children to beccome their parents. I'm in my 70s now, widowed, but this book had me sexually awakened AGAIN !!!! AND ADORED THE STREAMING VERSION OF RIVALS !!! Am ordering additional Jilly Cooper novels. Keep writing Jilly !!!! ... show more
