O knihe
Life can take some unusual twists and turns and fate can deliver some nasty blows, as evidenced in the three-part love story, Price of Forbidden Love, by Douglas Lowell Pemberton. This is the second edition. The wheel of fortune starts out on a downward spin for a woman named Raggie when she is born to a self-centered mother and an alcoholic, abusive father. Two years into her young life, it seems to take an upturn when Raggie's mother divorces and remarries. But through several unfortunate circumstances, Raggie finds herself living in the ghettos of Chicago at eighteen, supporting herself and her mother through prostitution after her stepfather is killed while trying to rob a bank. However the wheel of fortune spins in Raggie's favor when an unexpected windfall allows her and her mother to improve their standard of living, and Raggie becomes determined to better herself. Eventually she falls in love and marries, and fate seems to be content to let her live out her days in peace - or so it seems. Many years later, Raggie's son, Darrick, has fallen in love with Linda, the niece of a Mafia boss. Unbeknownst to Darrick, Linda takes part in her uncle's nefarious schemes and has marked Darrick as her victim. Luckily; fate has other plans for Darrick. James tries to recover his life ... what he once had .... before the turmoil from hell took over. In Part Three, titled Pride and Misfortune, James falls in love, becomes happily married, and has a boy and girl. Years pass, but his pride comes between his marriage and children because of women's liberation; when role of man and woman is reversed! Unfortunately James has the misfortune of falling into hell! Fast-paced gripping, and at times touching, Price of Forbidden Love culminates in a deadly manner, with the triumph of love over that which is pure evil.
