Logan Series by V. C. Andrews
Logan #1
Logan 01 Melody
V. C. Andrews
Melody Logan knew her beautiful mother, Haille, was unhappy in their hardscrabble mining town....
But with her wonderful father's unwavering love, Melody always felt
safe — until a dreadful mine accident ripped her from her family's
moorings.
She was still devastated by her father's death when she left West
Virginia with Haille to follow her mother's dream of becoming a model or
actress. But first they stopped in Cape Cod to visit her father's
family at last.
Melody knew only that her grandparents had disowned their son when
he married Haille — just because she was an orphan, her mother said. Yet
moments after Melody first laid eyes on dour, Bible-spouting Uncle
Jacob, nervous Aunt Sara, and her cousins — handsome Cary, whose twin,
Laura, had been killed recently in a sailing accident, and sweet, deaf
little May — Haille announced that Melody was to live with them.
Sleeping in Laura's old room, Melody was awash in a sea of grief and
confusion, with only her beloved fiddle to comfort her. Then Cary
revealed the truth he'd gleaned about her parents — a sad shocking story
that only puzzled her more. Melody knew nothing of the dark deceptions
that would soon surface...the devastating betrayals she would face
before she glimpsed the faint, beckoning lights of a safe harbor.

Heartsong
V. C. Andrews
Melody Logan was as alone as a solitary gull, with only the wild Atlantic wind to lift her spirits....
When Melody Logan's mother died in a car accident, Melody lost the
last shred of family she had ever known. She was practically a stranger
to the Logans, her wealthy relatives on Cape Cod, where she now drifted
on a sea of dark secrets. In the eyes of gentle Aunt Sara, Melody was a
replacement for her dead daughter, while for Uncle Jacob she was a
reminder of the family's shameful past. Only good-hearted Cary seemed to
care, and since it was revealed that she and Cary weren't truly
cousins, the affection that had always surged between them now crested
in thrilling waves.
But Melody knew she could never truly echo Cary's loving promises
until she discovered her own buried identity. Despite Grandma Olivia's
dagger-like threats, Melody sought out Belinda, a mysterious, half-crazy
woman who was her real grandmother. Belinda gave Melody hope — and a
glimmer of the pearls of truth she knew were hidden in the shifting Cape
Cod sands. Somehow, someday, the story of her past would be her
hard-won treasure, to be savored in a world of sunshine and
happiness...where she truly belonged

Unfinished Symphony
V. C. Andrews
Melody Logan had only just found a safe harbor when a new storm set her adrift all over again....
Melody had always believed her mother, Haille, and dear stepdaddy had died in tragic accidents — that's why she'd come to stay with her secretive Logan relatives on Cape Cod. But then a friend recognized Haille's picture in a catalog and kindled Melody's hopes. Maybe her mother hadn't perished in a fire in California after all, but was in some desperate trouble that kept her out of reach....
Melody's dream of finding her mother seemed as flimsy as the scrap of paper that was her only clue. And despite the pampered life Melody was offered as a guest in a Beverly Hills mansion, nothing could soften the blow of the moment she stood face-to-face with her mother and saw her eyes turn dark and cold as stones. Melody knew there must be a reason why her mother pretended at first not to recognize her — and why she'd even faked her own death. Though Melody's beloved Cary beckoned from Cape Cod, she felt in her heart that her mother needed her now more than ever. And beneath her mother's unkept promises and tattered fantasies, Melody hoped to unearth the truth about her own past, and find her way to a safer, better place...where she could embrace a bright new future of her own.

Olivia always
knew her younger sister would get into trouble. but she never realized
the undercurrents of disaster would grow to a raging flood....Olivia

the one to take over his million-dollar businesses. She would become the

She vowed never to grow up, to remain forever an enchanting little girl
to be worshiped and cared for.Then came that fateful
night, when Olivia was awakened by the low whistle of the wind off the
ocean...a whistle that became an unearthly wail coming from Belinda's
bedroom. It was the tragic night that their father would forbid them to
speak of ever again. The night they would never forget. The night that
would send generations of Logans down an unavoidable path of lies,
deceit, and heartbreak.
