______________________________


Welcome to the 80s, the decade of decadence…


The glamorous, cutthroat world of 1980s British television is all about power, a time when the affluent elite exist in a bubble of immense wealth and influence, and will use any means to get what they want. Lord Baddingham is desperate to retain his Corinium TV franchise, and to do so he’s hired Declan O’Hara, an Irish talk show mega-star. Baddingham has also enticed on board Cameron Cook, a gorgeous and brash executive, to produce Declan’s program. But Declan and Cameron detest each other, soon provoking a storm of controversy.


Enter into the fray everyone’s favourite hate-to-love-him bad-boy, Rupert Campbell-Black. As a rival group emerges to pitch for the franchise, reputations ripen and decline, true love blossoms and burns, marriages are made and shattered, and everyone is competing – in bed and in the boardroom – to come out on top.

Just spent a blissful week by the pool on holiday listening to Georgia Tennant’s amazing narration of Rivals. It’s a great book full of brilliant characters who are brought to life by Georgia’s fab accents and perfect timings. Thoroughly recommend to all. Having read all Jilly Coopers books years ago it was a real treat to rediscover this classic. Please can Georgia now narrate all all her other books? Particularly Riders and Polo - her Rupert Campbell-Black drawl was spot on! 👏👏

A wonderful holiday “read” with the best narrator ever!
