Lucky Chances (miniseries)
Based on the Jackie Collins novels "Chances" and "Lucky," this miniseries traces forty years in a powerful mob family where the Don and his daughter are in direct competition--and each appears more ruthless than the other.
Synopsis of Lucky Chances (miniseries)
The torrid intrigues and passions of a Mafia Don and his gorgeous daughter. They explode in this steamy drama spanning 40 violent years in the life of a ruthless underworld family.
Devastatingly handsome Gino Santangelo parleys illegal profits and illicit affairs into a Las Vegas gambling empire. Soon Gino infiltrates the seductive, power-mad worlds of Hollywood and Washington, courting beautiful actresses and blackmailing ambitious politicians.
The strained relationship between Gino and his stunningly beautiful, rebellious daughter Lucky finally erupts into a dangerous power struggle. Gino flees America avoiding a criminal investigation initiated by his illegitimate son — and the cunning Lucky seizes power.
Now father and daughter must choose between fighting each other — or the deadly menace which threatens to destroy the Santangelo empire.

About Jackie
There have been many imitators, but only Jackie Collins can tell you what really goes on in the fastest lane of all.
From Beverly Hills bedrooms to a raunchy prowl along the streets of Hollywood; from glittering rock parties and concerts to stretch limos and the mansions of the power brokers — Jackie Collins chronicles the real truth from the inside looking out.
Jackie Collins has been called a “raunchy moralist” by the late director Louis Malle and “Hollywood’s own Marcel Proust” by Vanity Fair magazine. With over 500 million copies of her books sold in more than 40 countries, and with some thirty New York Times bestsellers to her credit, Jackie Collins is one of the world’s top-selling novelists. She is known for giving her readers an unrivaled insiders knowledge of Hollywood and the glamorous lives and loves of the rich, famous, and infamous! “I write about real people in disguise,” she says. “If anything, my characters are toned down — the truth is much more bizarre.”
