my wife sarah   has asked me to see if  any of you are in to jackie collins[ she has read them all] if so what would you recomend to be in this same

genre

I have Lovers & Players on my swaps if she wants it. I also have a couple on my tbr list if she wants me to read them. I have the new 1 called Married Lovers as well.

I have not read Jackie Collins books -  Shirley Conran, Andrea Newman, some of Jilly Coopers (I think), Sally-Anne Robinson are some that come to mind

thanks but she has just read the married lovers and swaped it for tan lines

 I used to devour Jackie Collins when I was in my early teens and late twenties, but I've not read any of her stuff for years.  However, I have recently discovered Tasmina Perry and have read both Daddy's Girls and Guilty Secrets.  They were both great reads and very similar to Jackie Collins - lots of glitz and glamour and a bit of raunch too.  If she hasnt read any Shirley Conran (Lace etc) or Judith Krantz (Princess Daisy etc), I would suggest those too.  They are oldies but goodies.  Good luck with the search

 thanks annecater  she  is reading daddy's girls now and has got guilty secrets

we will be on the hunt for shirley conran and judith krantz did not know about 

these thanks

I only just found her a an author 2 years ago and love what I have read so far, not sure who else is like her, maybe Katie Price Angel?  I have it on my swaps but its acceptable, it was a swap too

Some of the early Susan Lewis books can be a bit raunchy, I've not read a Jackie Collins so don't really know how they compare

 If you like JC try Sandra Brown...she is fab and very raunchy too..........................

I once read "the World is full of married men" by Jackie Collins. It was a copy my parents had when they were book club people in the 1960's/1970's. Was a bit raunchy to my rather naive self. Then I bought a copy of " A bouquet of barbed wire" with some tokens that I had collected from Lyons cakes boxes ( I'm not making this up) which my mother wrote a cheque out for. The series had just been on telly or maybe not quite had hit the screens because I think once Mother knew the content of the story she would have never had anything to do with it.

I have just discovered Shannon McKenna a work mate gave me her books and they are very raunchy and explicit  put it this way i dont leave them lying around the house

Some of the earlier Louise Bagshawe novels can be a bit raunchy too but I've not read any of the later ones but they're good anyway - it's not just all s*x, there are actually plots to them.  I loved Jackie Collins' books and then there's always Jilly Cooper too if she hasn't already read those.

 I have read Married Lovers by Jackie Collins, only because I have read everything that Jackie Collins has written, but I admit that these books are just not the same now as back in the "olden days".  Its probably because Im older. I have also read Tasmina Perry's guilty secrets and would like to read the other 2 novels that she has written.  Guilty Secrets was really good, I enjoy all that glitz, glamour and sex, takes me out of my rather surburban life.  I would also like to read Tan Lines, but I have about 6 books to read.  Just finished Olivia Goldsmith's Bestseller which I also really enjoyed.

I was going to say Louise Bagshawe as well, her books are really good. I would also recommend Sandra Brown and maybe Sharon Sala

I think Lesley Pearse is another who has raunchy parts in her books too.  So far I've only read Camellia and Tara but both of them were like that.  Although the raunchiest book I have ever read is 'A Woman of her Time' by Caroline Gray I would go so far as to say it borders on pornography.
