Casandra always wanted to write a book but hesitated for many years, as she suffers from adult dyslexia. She never allowed her disability to hold her back on anything, and she finally completed her first book,
Jamie Reynolds Chronicles: Lust and Lies
, in 2015.

She is the successful owner of Smell the Sunset, LLC, which is an umbrella company for Creative Encores, LLC, an event planning business, and What’s Good USA, a Good News website that highlights good news from around the United States and her newest adventure author.

Casandra lives by many mottos, but her favorite one is “Live today, Laugh often and Love always,” which is also tattooed on her left arm to remind her every day to Live, Laugh and Love.

Acknowledgements

I wish to personally thank the following people for their contributions in inspiring years of memories, knowledge and other help in creating this book:

My parents, who raised me right and pushed me to want more for myself. My mom always said, “I would be the first millionaire in the family,” and I carried these words throughout my life and work hard to make this dream come true.

Towanda, you have been by my side since 2003 and seen me at my best and worst moments, and without judgment you loved and supported me. Apollo, who listened to my dreams, goals and visions and pushed me to go after them, thank you.

Gillian Felix (Plain Talk Book Marketing), for not only giving me direction but also the motivation to finally finish this book, and provided the guidance and connection to make it happen.

Pauline Nolet, my editor, I didn’t think this was possible and was scared to send my book because of my disability, but you were a trooper and made the editing process very smooth and comfortable. I can’t wait to work with you again.

Laura H. I am new at all of this, but you provided editorial guidance and designed an amazing cover. Thanks for your ongoing support and listening to me talk about this book.

My kids (dogs), for the unconditional love I get no matter what stage I’m at in my life.

Finally to all my true friends and family.

I am a stronger person because of you all, thanks for believing in me.
