Book description
All families have secrets. This family hid a secret which would tear it
apart. Sexy, glamorous and fun, WICKED PLEASURES is the story of a
brother and two sisters who find out that they all have different
fathers: none of them Alexander, Earl of Catherham, who was married to
their mother for almost twenty years. It is the story of the power and
the greed of the mega-rich, as the great family banking business upon
which fortunes are won and lost comes to the brink of ruin, and family
ties are tested to the utmost. Penny Vincenzi is one of the UK's
best-loved and most popular authors. Since her first novel, Old Sins,
was published in 1989, she has written fourteen bestselling novels, most
recently The Best of Times and the number one bestseller An Absolute
Scandal.
Her first 'proper' job was at the Harrods Library, aged sixteen, after
which she went to secretarial college. She joined the Mirror and later
became a journalist, writing for The Times, the Daily Mail and
Cosmopolitan amongst many others, before turning to fiction. Several
years later, over seven million copies of Penny's books have been sold
worldwide and she is universally held to be the 'doyenne of the modern
blockbuster' (Glamour).
Penny Vincenzi has four daughters, and divides her time between London
and Gower, South Wales.
