About this ebook
Sandra Maddix
Sandra Maddix was born and raised in Neasden, North West London, in 1966. She has a mixed cultural/religious background and grew up in a dominant matriarchal home. Her main belief in life is that knowledge in any form or direction is power; hence she has many qualifications, including architecture, under her belt. Suffice to say writing has always been her passion. Unlike most, she has lived a far from quiet life that gets reanimated through her writing, which does not leave a lot to the imagination. Overall, Sandra has faith in people and life, belief in humanity and all it stands for, morals, values, faith, and respect for life. Anything is possible.

This book is dedicated to all of my family and friends, especially to those I have found via social networking. Blessed to you all my allowing me into your life, even though over the internet, I still felt I found something that was lost and now gained.
I would especially love to express my esteem dedication to my son Ceaké who has always been a positive factor a long by my side in everything we have accomplished this year.
Last and not least, to all of the team at Chipamunka publishing, without whom this book would not be published. I offer them my sincere blessing and gratitude.
Sincerely and lovingly all Sandra
