    About this ebook

    Two brothers. Two rivals.One huge family secret.Scandal is just waiting to happen

    Charlie Lomax hasn't seen his older brother in years. Cato's been too busy living the A-list Hollywood dream to bother with the likes of their small Cornish hometown, ignoring his duty as heir to the family estate and title. With Cato's unexpected return, Charlie knows his reclusive life at Usherwood will be in jeopardy. But he doesn't intend to give up his home without a fight, birthright be damned!

    Unsuspecting Olivia needs a job after spectacularly failing to make a life for herself in London. Forced back to Cornwall, she has no idea what she's getting herself into by becoming a gardener at the crumbling but beautiful Usherwood estate. She certainly didn't bargain on becoming embroiled in the biggest scandal of the year, and not least because brooding Charlie is a man she can't seem to stay away from .

    Victoria Fox

    By day I live in London. By night I relax in my fantasy LA mansion, sipping Krug in a Jacuzzi and watching a bare-chested man clean out my pool. I was born in 1983, went to boarding school in my teens and studied English at university. While there, I wrote my first (unpublished) bonkbuster: The Hardest Part. It had lots of sex in it and not a great deal else. Suffice to say that after a rambunctious beginning it was over disappointingly quickly. Despite this, the genre never lost its sheen. I want to write bonkbusters with swagger; rude, racy and irreverent reads that reignite the glory days of Collins and Cooper. Plenty of sex, bags of scandal and a host of outrageous players who keep us up long after lights-out. A long-time admirer of Jackie Collins, I often wondered what life would be like as a bonkbuster author. After working in publishing for a few years, I decided to quit and find out - and I haven't looked back since . . . Hollywood Sinners is my first novel.
