I was like some dark shadow haunting my own parents and little sister. This was my chance to be reborn. . . .Roxy Wilcox has always been rebellious and defiant—the exact opposite of her sweet, obedient younger sister, Emmie. After sixteen years of trying to discipline Roxy, their father snaps—and kicks her out of their Manhattan town house. Alone in the city, Roxy is determined to make it big and show them all . . . but how? A chance meeting with a stranger opens the door to a whole new life when he introduces her to the tantalizing world of high-class escorts, where Roxy will be taught how to walk, talk, and dress to seduce. She will be pampered, polished, and perfected in the art of satisfying the world’s wealthiest men, and the rewards surpass Roxy’s most extravagant dreams. But when a shattering tragedy reunites Roxy and Emmie, will the secrets shared between sisters bind them together—or tear them apart forever?Books with free ebook downloads available Epub Roxy's Story

Epub Roxy's Story
Bleh.
That pretty much sums up this series, another desperate money-making attempt to cash in on a long-dead woman's name. V.C. Andrews only completed 8 books in her lifetime (including her sci-fi novel) and started several more that the ghostwriter finished.
Now there are over 70 books under her name. So this means 90 percent of these titles are the ghostwriter's. If this is not overkill, I don't know what is. The poor woman has been dead for over 25 years and some ignorant readers still think she is alive/writing these, which is a disgrace as the current books (and these written in the last decade) do not even begin to compare to Ms. Andrew's own work, or even the ghostwriter's early work (the Cutler series)
Where do I even begin? VCA was known for her family sagas, and for a while the ghostwriter continued that tradition. I genuinely enjoyed the Cutler and Landry series, and even the Logan series. What made VCA so compelling was the twists and turns and family secrets, and how an innocent person could be profoundly affected by dark family legacies.
No more. The recent books, these since the Logan series, have been nothing but tween garbage, with a rare decent/so-so book here and there (i.e. Broken Wings) and many, many GOD-AWFUL books (Midnight Flight, Broken Flower series, April Shadows series, Heavenstone series, the Kindred series, the Secrets in the Attic series, Into the Darkness)
This Forbidden series has been a wee bit better, but it is still extremely lackluster even compared to the ghostwriter's own work, let alone Ms. Andrews' work. This book leaves much unanswered.
