Bittersweet Dreams

People thought I was lucky. I had a wealthy father, lived in a beautiful house, and I was brilliant. But no one saw the other side of me . . . .
A psychologically gripping and edgy new novel from bestselling author V. C. Andrews. Mayfair Cummings is off-the-charts smart, with an IQ so high that she often feels like an unlucky freak for being born "profoundly gifted." At school, girls tease and torment her, while teachers seem to fear her. At home, her stepmother, Julie, tries to mold her into a dollish version of herself. If it weren't for her sweet stepsister, Allison, Mayfair might not have any warm human contact at all. But everything changes when she agrees to a makeover. Dazzling in a new wardrobe, along with a new hairstyle and makeup that enhance her natural beauty, Mayfair quickly attracts the attention of popular senior Carlton James, not to mention the advances of Mr. Taylor, her handsome English teacher. Not even her brilliant mind could prepare her for the explosive new relationships she is forming, or the scandal that is brewing . . . . Copyright 2015 Vanda Productions, LLC.
