BOOK THREE OF DESTINY TRILOGY Arlene Marie Muller continues the journeys of Joanna, Kay, and Maddie in Kay Rising: Destiny III. From the age of sixteen, Kay's private life had been on public display. Everything she did, including who she did, was public knowledge. Her love affairs with men and women, her drug abuse, and her disrespect for authority and outrageous teenage rebellions had all been fodder for the media. At the time, she thought any publicity was good publicity, and actively sought the attention of the media. She had it all, beauty, success and money before she was old enough to vote, and she thought the adulation from her fans, and the constant media attention would make her feel loved and worthy of the success she had attained. It never did. Kay saw herself for what she was, an angry, bitter, self-destructive drug addict living a chaotic celebrity life under a microscope, who had betrayed the people she loved most in the world. Though Joanna and Maddie have forgiven her, will she ever be able to forgive herself? The Destiny Trilogy are contemporary dramas that whisks you through the lives of Joanna, Kay, and Maddie, three very distinct and dynamic women seeking the same connection to love and family. At ease in cowboy boots or high heels, Joanna is an earth mother who longs to be barefoot and pregnant. At eighteen I was a runway model in Paris. I thought I'd work for five or six years, then marry and start a family. At thirty-five, I wanted to be living on a ranch, with kids and dogs running in and out of the house all day, and a loyal and devoted husband making love to me all night. A diva at twenty-one, Kay, reached the height of success as a supermodel, while she broke every heart she met along the way. I have casual affairs with people I don't love, and who don't love me, because if there's no commitment, I won't feel like I've been deserted when the relationship ends. Tender, motherless Maddie, twelve, alone and scared after feeling abandoned at a boarding school far from home, finds solace and companionship in the wild splendor of the Oregon countryside. I live in a constant state of longing, and a kind look from a stranger, a gentle touch of a housekeeper's hand, or a reassuring smile from a teacher, make the love I yearn for bearable. Follow the intricate twists and turns of Joanna, Kay, and Maddie's lives as their different journeys lead them to the same destiny.
