About this listen
Into the cutthroat world of Corinium television comes mega-star Declan O'Hara. Declan soon realises that the Managing Director, Lord Baddingham, has recruited him merely to help retain the franchise for Corinium. Baddingham has also enticed Cameron Cook, a gorgeous, domineering woman executive, to produce Declan's programme.
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 sex raises its head at almost every throw....

Very enjoyable listen
My first JILLY COOPER book but can't wait to read the next.
Predictable ending but enjoyable none the less.

Great read
Well read, except for the Irish accents, as all sound the same, and not at all glamorous!

I loved this, excellent for long car journey. I read all the Jilly Cooper books when they first came out & the audio books are also superb.

Jilly Cooper at her best!
Wonderful continuation of RCB' s story. A host of new characters to love and hate. Delicious and entertaining. A great holiday read.

Awesome Simply Awesome!
A complete ride of' a book and with every pun intended but with some TV production and the eighties thrown in all woven together so expertly by a cheeky word smith like no one else.
You lothe the bad guys and cheer on the good and you won't want to put it down. Emerse yourself.

love the Cotchester chronicles
Jilly Cooper never disappoints, the narration wasn't my favourite but didn't detract from an enjoyable story

Absolutely brilliant!
I first read this in the 90s as a teenager and fell in love with it and Jilly Cooper; I’ve read it multiple times since and after watching the new TV series on Disney (which is brilliant!), I have listened to it on Audible this week. Rivals is still wonderful; yes, it’s dated in so many ways, but it’s rare to find a book where you become so invested in the characters. For me, the highlight has always been how deeply Rupert falls for Taggie - the scene where he crushes a glass at the ball and realises the true depth of his feelings is heartbreaking and beautiful. And so many of the characters are adorable; Freddie is a diamond, Declan is swoon worthy, Cameron so misunderstood. I will adore this book for the rest of my life; it was the first ‘bonkbuster’ I ever read and few can compare - it’s Jilly Cooper at her outstanding best. Simply put, I ADORE THIS BOOK! The narration was brilliant too!
