About the author
Rikki Lee Travolta
3 books3 followersRikki Lee Travolta is an acclaimed author, influential product spokesperson, celebrated television and podcast host, and accomplished producer across film, television, and music. He is also an international award–winning screenwriter whose creative reach spans multiple mediums.
Travolta’s debut novel, My Fractured Life, became a best seller and was the passion project of Academy Award winner Heath Ledger, who was eager to star in its adaptation. A pioneer in alternate history fiction, his work has been compared in influence to The Man in the High Castle, His Majesty’s Dragon, The Underground Railroad, and Fatherland.
As a literary authority, Travolta is counted among the Top 5 experts on the success philosophies of Think and Grow Rich author Napoleon Hill. Serving as the private researcher for Hill’s official biography, he spent months in exclusive sessions studying the teachings of one of history’s most respected motivational figures. He is also the sole custodian of an exclusive selection of Hill’s prized private audio diaries — a rare collection of significant historical value.
In the business arena, Travolta and his team have built and revitalized multiple No. 1 brands, achieving success across a wide spectrum of industries — from computers and home improvement services to cell phones, automobiles, air travel, food products, consumer electronics, and travel destinations. He was praised as a Marketing Genius by Apple CEO Steve Jobs for generating groundbreaking and historic levels of press coverage for the first OSX-Tablet. His expertise in brand positioning and market influence has helped elevate companies such as Chaya Tequila, Empire Today, Other World Computing, Axiotron, Kinko’s, Lola Wireless, NewerTech, Roth Staffing, Pavement Entertainment, Paramount Pictures, and Red Light Entertainment.
Travolta commands a loyal following in the horror film community and the rock ‘n’ roll world, credited with helping to revive the careers of Sunset Strip–era heavy metal legends. A former national headlining theatrical leading man, he has earned multiple acting awards, including Best Actor honors for The Sleight at the Gene Siskel Film Center’s Midwest Film Festival, sponsored by Lamborghini. He helped turn Tony n’ Tina’s Wedding into a national sensation and was slated to star in the 2005 Broadway revival of Bye Bye Birdie before production delays intervened. Throughout his acting career, Travolta was in the running for some of Hollywood’s most iconic roles, including Thor, Anakin Skywalker, and James Bond—testament to his versatile talent and magnetic screen presence.
His personal story is one of extraordinary resilience. He survived physical abuse, identity theft, and malicious character assassination — including the publication of fake biographical works, fabricated online postings, AI-generated videos, and fraudulent articles that spread false allegations of mental illness, affairs with Baywatch star Pamela Anderson and Blossom star and People Magazine online columnist Jenna von Oÿ, and preposterous suggestions of illicit drug use. Travolta unequivocally rejects these accusations and is clear: he has never been, nor is he now, mentally ill.
The author, along with his legal team, has demanded that Unbecoming Travolta be withdrawn from the market, denouncing it as inaccurate, libelous, and profoundly damaging. Travolta fought back against such defamation, and despite these attacks, continues to rise — embodying his philosophy of turning tragedy into triumph.
Known nationwide as “America’s Friend,” Rikki Lee Travolta inspires audiences through his books, media appearances, and business achievements, leaving a lasting impact on American culture, the economy, and the enduring spirit of The American Dream for All.

Blood Lust: a my Fractured Life saga by Rikki Lee Travolta is a very quick read. Quite the page turner, it redefines the vampire genre similarly to how Anne Rice revamped the genre with the Vampire Chronicles. A former Hollywood heartthrob, now at the bottom of a bottle and down on his luck, stumbles on the hidden world of vampires and is himself turned into a vampire. The turn has a surprising affect on his attempts to re-enter the Hollywood star system. Author Travolta does an excelent job with character development and plot twists, making it a very good book and a great escape.

After thoroughly enjoying Travolta's first novel My Fractured Life, I rushed into reading the sequel Blood Lust. The vampire twist was very interesting and worked better than I would have expected. Even with the vampire twist, Travolta doesn't stray far from the escapades of his Hollywood has-been leading man (he obviously knows what his bread-and-butter subject matter is). I give it four stars - well worth reading although not quite as hypnotic as My Fractured Life.

I love Blood Lust as much as the Twilight Series. It has a fresh take on the vampire genre that addiction to blood is not the worst vice a Hollywood actor can have. Great characters. Great book.
