Petals on the Wind {+Prizes}

 
Some years ago I came across a series that held me spellbound. It was about four children who were imprisoned in an attic by their mother and grandmother. I read the series as fast as the books were released.

I’m delighted that the series has gained new interest, been re-released and is fast becoming a movie sensation. In case you haven’t guessed, it’s the Dollanganger series by V.C. Andrews and began with the FLOWERS IN THE ATTIC.

On the heels of the successful Lifetime TV version of Flowers in the Attic comes the TV movie tie-in edition of Petals On the Wind, the second book in the captivating Dollanganger saga.

        Forbidden love comes into full bloom. For three years they were kept hidden in the eaves of Foxworth Hall, their existence all but denied by a mother who schemed to inherit a fortune.
        For three years their fate was in the hands of their righteous, merciless grandmother. They had to stay strong…but in their hopeless world, Cathy and her brother Christopher discovered blossoming desires that tumbled into a powerful obsession.
        Now, with their frail sister, Carrie, they have broken free and scraped enough together for three bus tickets and a chance at a new life. The horrors of the attic are behind them…but they will carry its legacy of dark secrets forever.

Pick up PETALS ON THE WIND next Tuesday, May 20, and then watch the movie on the following Monday, May 26. Turn in to Lifetime on May 26 at 9 p.m. (ET) to watch the world premiere of PETALS ON THE WIND.

Here’s a short blurb from the first release:

      For Carrie, Chris and Cathy the attic was a dark horror that would not leave their minds.
      Of course mother had to pretend they didn't exist and grandmother was convinced they had the devil in them.
      But that wasn't their fault. Was it?
      Cathy knew what to do. She knew it was time to show her mother and grandmother that the pain and terror of the attic could not be forgotten...Show them. Show them -- once and for all.
