Author Bio:
S. Simone Kamassah, PhD, is a social worker, educator, and entrepreneur.
Born in England, she was raised by Jamaican parents in Toronto, Canada, where she continues to thrive. Writing is not a choice for this author. Stories fill her, every day, compelling her to write them, joyfully. She loves to rescue books from every secondhand store and has almost every wall of her home lined with volumes to prove it. The mother of three enjoys frequent day trips with her family, driving along highways with the music loud.
This is her first published novel.
