As one as the UK’s most successful agents, managers and publicists for TV actresses, Melanie Blake has represented some of the most famous faces on British television and international screens.

Where her debut novel, the No. 1 bestseller The Thunder Girls, was inspired by the early years of her career spent working in the music industry, her follow-up novel Ruthless Women is heavily influenced by the last 15 years Melanie has spent representing more female actresses than any other agent in her genre. Readers of Ruthless Women are taken on a wild ride behind the scenes of beloved TV drama Falcon Bay, but what takes place behind the cameras is way juicier than what happens on screen….and you'll play a guessing game of what's fact or fiction in the title reviewers are calling 'the must read of 2021'.

In this exclusive event, Melanie will be joined by  legendary Coronation Street star Beverley Callard, Loose Women and Daily Mirror Agony Aunt and Sex Columnist Coleen Nolan and Ann Summers CEO Jacqueline Gold. The four women will be discussing topics including the double standards that women face in the worlds of entertainment and business, the importance of writing stories for women in their 40s and 50s, why we need more sex in books, asking the question 'how true to soap life Ruthless Women is' as well as answering questions about their personal lives and businesses and of course talking frankly about sex and what women want in 2021! 

These ‘ruthless women’ will share their stories of success, alongside anecdotes about their best and worst sex experiences and why Jackie Collins is their ultimate inspiration. 

So crack open a bottle with the girls for the perfect antidote to lockdown: a high-octane, hilarious and fascinating evening to mark the rebirth of a genre. The bonkbuster is back!
