Immodesty Blaize’s second book - following Tease - appears to be about Tiger Starr’s daughter, and will be called Ambition. It’s due for release on 14th October 2010 and is bound to appeal to fans of the Bagshawe sisters. Here’s the synopsis:

Money. Fame. Love. Who says you can’t have it all? Being the daughter of a showbiz icon is a mixed blessing for Sienna Starr. Though she dreams of following in her famous mother’s footsteps, she wants to get to the top on her own merits. Securing a role as a chorus girl in the Follies seems a step towards achieving her ambitions. But life isn’t all glamour and glitz and, off the Strip, Las Vegas can be a dark and sinister place. Sienna then makes the mistake of ruffling the feathers of the show’s star, Brandy Alexander. A legend in her own dressing room, not least for her astringent charms, Brandy doesn’t take kindly to younger, prettier girls trying to outshine her. Yet Brandy’s has more than one skeleton in the closet and dark secrets she’d do anything to hide…

Trisha Ashley’s latest book, Twelve Days of Christmas, is due out on October 28th - just in time for the start of the Christmas season, I’m sure you will agree! It sounds like a fab read and one I’ll certainly be picking up, plus the cover is so lovely which always helps. It’ll be the second book out this year to have the title The Twelve Days of Christmas (although it was originally called Twelfth Night, but Shakespeare ruled that out!). The other book with the same title is Amy Silver’s new one which we posted about last week! Here’s the synopsis for Trisha’s Twelve Days of Christmas!

With no escape, Holly and Jude get much more than they bargained for – it looks like the twelve days of Christmas are going to be very interesting indeed!
