Betrayed by Love: Vengeance of a Vixen
Revenge is a dish best serve cold.............
......and death is satisfying when it's administered agonizingly slow.
Maxine is the epitomized creation of a dangerous and successful street hustling father and a murder for hire mother. She finds herself alone and exposed to the ills of the hood when her father, Jules, a man who shadowed her from harm's way and showered her with her heart's desire is violently killed by an envious, sore losing gambler; and her mother, Maxima, who always chose her secretive and deadly career over her motherly duties, falters on the biggest hit of her career and is sentenced to life in prison, Maxine finds herself alone with a thousand unanswered questions.
An unknown key that her father left behind becomes the object of great interest. More so, it becomes the driving force of the many conspirators' attempt on her life to reclaim it. However, like her genealogical family tree, Maxine is a thoroughbred, who doesn't easily submit to being a victim. That is until she is victimized by the last person she'd ever thought would do so.
With no room for love in her torturous and lonely world, Maxine is vexed by her attraction to Styles, an out of town stranger that saves her life when the goons, hunting the key, determined that the best time to reclaim what they deem is rightfully theirs was during her father’s funeral procession. Even so, Styles has no room for any added distraction when deceit had reared it’s ugly head, mere days before, in the form of his two year old daughter, Iana, losing her life from a bullet meant for him. To Maxine’s dismay, as quickly as Styles appeared like a savior in the night, he leaves without an hint as to whether she would ever see him again.
Maxine’s forbidden and first time visit to the place where her mother, Maxima, is destined for the rest of her life, awakens a hatred for Maxine that manifests itself in the cruelest way.........envy, jealousy, and greed. The years of lonely days and restless nights that Maxima endured locked away allowed a hatred for her daughter to fester. Now, with her daughter’s revelation of being in possession of the long sought after key, a whole shade of deception is conjured in Maxima’s mind towards the child birthed from her very womb.
Maxima convinces her daughter to result to drastic, humiliating, and immoral acts to stack the deck in her favor for her upcoming parole hearing. In return, they will live life abundantly, sharing the wealth that Maxima has promised the key holds.
However, Maxima’s freedom reveals a demented and mentally deranged woman who fails to recognize her daughter’s prowess and resolve for vengeance when she is Betrayed by Love.
