Packed with glamour and intrigue, Guilty Pleasures - from the Top Ten bestselling author, Tasmina Perry - is the perfect holiday read.
In the ultra-chic world of the fabulously rich, fashion can have a very high price...
Saul Milford, owner of one of England's oldest and most prestigious luxury goods companies is dead, but who will inherit his estate?
For years Saul's niece Cassandra, editor-in-chief of Rive, the most glamorous fashion magazine of the moment has believed that she would be the sole benefactor. But she's not the only family member with their eye on the ultimate prize. Roger, Saul's handsome brother with a demanding wife. Elizabeth the art-dealer with a dark and brooding secret, Tom the playboy nephew, and Emma, the hard-working but unlucky in love niece living and working in Boston.

It's what beaches were made for.
