Lovers is pure Krantz, an intoxicating dance of love lost, stolen, and found among women and men who lure each other with potent combinations of money, talent, ambition, and passion. Chief among them is irresistible Gigi Orsini, the high-spirited, merry, adventurous creature who grew up into enchanting womanhood in Scruples Two. Now Gigi is working as a copywriter in a new Los Angeles advertising agency, with her creative "teammate," David Melville, a brilliant young art director who joins her in seeking new accounts. The agency is headed by dashing Archie Rourke, humorous Byron Bernheim and the severely difficult beauty, Victoria Frost, daughter of the famed Millicent Frost Caldwell who, with her husband Angus Caldwell, owns one of New York's largest advertising agencies. Ben Winthrop, a proper Bostonian and an enormously successful mall builder, attempts to capture Gigi's quicksilver affections, although his fierce contenders for the same prize include both David Melville and the dominating film director, Zach Nevsky. Meanwhile, Billy Winthrop Ikehorn Orsini Elliott, the unforgettably impulsive heroine of Scruples, and her new husband, the great charmer, Spider Elliott, are busy with their own fascinating lives, as are Gigi's father, canny film producer Vito Orsini, and her best friend, the ravishing Sasha Nevsky, none of whom can be forgotten from Scruples and Scruples Two. Lovers completes all the stories set in motion in the first two novels, yet it stands entirely on its own as a slice of life in the exciting years of 1983 and 1984.… (meer)
Voor Steve, met al mijn oneindige liefde. Zelfs terwijl er een foorball-seizoen begint, en mijn echtgenoot steeds vaker niet gestoord wil worden - zo hij al niet erg moeilijk te vinden is - is er toch niemand anders te vinden aan wie ik dit boek zou willen opdragen. Als alle wedstrijden achter de rug zijn, weet ik dat hij er altijd is om een nieuw hoofdstuk te lezen en dat hij dat onmisbare, eerlijke, nadenkende, inspirerende klankbord is dat alle schrijvers nodig hebben - en slechts enkele gelukkigen vinden dat onder hun eigen dak.
