Publisher's summary

Forbidden passions have shaped and haunted the Dollanganger family since their first novel - Flowers in the Attic - debuted 40 years ago. Now discover how twisted the roots of the family tree truly are and witness the family’s origins as the result of one wild and complicated relationship. In this evocative and thrilling tale from New York Times best-selling author V.C. Andrews, see Corrine Dixon as a young girl and discover the fascinating family history of the Dollanganger clan.

Two generations before Corinne Foxworth locked her children in an attic, her grandmother, a gorgeous young girl named Corrine Dixon, is swept away by the charms of rich, sophisticated, and handsome Garland Foxworth. After discovering that Corrine is pregnant, Garland does what appears to be the honorable thing and marries her in a huge ceremony on the luxurious Foxworth Hall grounds. Both families fervently overlook the pregnancy, happy for a suitable resolution. Now the mistress of a labyrinthine estate, Corrine discovers that nothing is what is seems. Garland is not the man once captivated by her charms, and she’s increasingly troubled by his infatuation with memories of his departed mother. Can Corrine survive this strange new life? Or is her fate already sealed?

Explore the origins of the legendary Dollanganger family in this pause-resisting, gripping Gothic thriller.

One giant YAWN of a story!

Don't know why I got excited about a "new" Dollanganger novel....Neidermeyer will NEVER be VCAndrews.

Get ready to find out how it all began!

This is the prequel to how Flowers in the Attic came to be. Who would have thought it started so far back. This book had my attention and I’m ready to move on to the next one. Enjoy!

Corrine Dixon: What a Shallow Unlikable Person!

This audiobook was just alright. What made it “just alright “ was Corrine Dixon! She’s arrogant, spoiled, over-the-top vain & just plain boring. To be the great-grandmother of Christopher, Cathy, Cory & Carrie I just couldn’t understand why this book couldn’t have be so much better than it was.
Short Answer: IT’S NOT WRITTEN BY VC ANDREWS. Neiderman or whatever his name, is a TERRIBLE ghostwriter that does NOTHING to continue the legacy of VC Andrews.
It’s embarrassing. Nothing more than a money grab off the ‘Flowers in the Attic’ series.

The narrator did a pretty good job with what she had to work with. I still wish female narrators would do the female parts ONLY & get men to do the male parts that would help a lot. I believe it would be much more entertaining to listen to.

Overall this story gets 2.
