' Fun, sexy and unputdownable - a classic' - Marian Keyes 'Pure, unadulterated joy ' - Sophie Kinsella 'Hilarious, witty, wise, astute [and] flawlessly entertaining ' - Helen Fielding _______________________ 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. _______________________ PRAISE FOR DAME JILLY COOPER ' Joyful and mischievous .

I enjoyed this book. Granted it is nothing like Riders or Polo. I found it very engaging. I love that it continued with the life of Rupert Campbell-Black (although not as the main).

Not as good as Riders
Rivals missed the mark for me, possibly because the horses (which were major characters in Riders) were absent. I read about 300 pages trying to get into it and never really engaged.
