Forbidden (Andrews)

Emmie Wilcox was only six when her sister, Roxy, was thrown out of their New York City Apartment. Their stern father's military-style left no room for rebellion, and Roxy was continually defiant and rebellious. Emmie is obedient, respectful. Two sisters, total opposites - yet Emmie is secretly obsessed with the mystery and imposed silence surrounding Roxy: What had she finally done to deserve being cast out of her home? Sometimes she fantasizes that she is more like Roxy than she appears. She wants excitement, and being a good girl all the time is harder than it seems. Finally learning that Roxy is a highly paid escort to wealthy and powerful men, Emmie goes behind her father's back to track down and spy on the sister she can't help but be fascinated with.

Kicked out of her house because her father can no longer tolerate her constant delinquency, Roxy wanders the streets of New York, living in a fleabag hotel. Spotted by an 'agent' for Madam Brittany, a sophisticated woman who runs an escort service, Roxy is taken into the Madam's 'training program' where she is educated and set up with her own boutique apartment. When Roxy takes her sister in after their parents' death, she doesn't expect it to be for long. Her plan is to get her sister to Paris where she can live with relatives. But then Roxy's own life becomes complicated when she falls in love with a wealthy young Frenchman while on vacation, and suddenly her immediate future seems uncertain...
