Gorgeous, flamboyant Maxi Amberville is twenty-nine and has already discarded three husbands on two continents. Life is a stream of endless pleasure in her lavish Trump Tower apartment--until her widowed mother married a man who plots to sell her father's magazine empire. And Maxi turns her incredible lust for living into a passionate quest for power.
Maxi takes over the small weekly Buttons And Bows. She gathers her hot-blooded ex-husband, sassy daughter and a coterie of the powerful elite. Then, risking all, Maxi creates B&B--the glitziest, ritziest, most successful fashion magazine in the country. Here is a dramatic, sizzling story of love, family, ambition and one unforgettable woman who gives life and love everything she has.

I wrote about Judith Krantz's unwittingly dystopian 1986 novel I'll Take Manhattan, which is partly set in Trump Tower and features Trump as a character (and was made into a miniseries with Valerie Bertinelli), for @LAReviewofBooks https://t.co/6GVVR6UxgA https://t.co/bhOyg13vhJ
