About the Author
Designer by profession and author by choice, I am a visionary and dreamer for the finer things in life. I want to use my words and imagination to allow people a safe space where they can escape reality and find solace amoungst the chaos. I have been writing on different online platforms for almost a decade now but this would be my first time publishing a novel and I look forward to every single step of the journey.
Excerpts
Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to New York City, the “concrete jungle where dreams are made”, where “there’s nothing you can’t do”. Here in the city that never sleeps, meet Cassie Florence, editor-in-the-making at ELLE Magazine.
As September approached, Cassie started off a new week at ELLE magazine. She had been working there for just over two weeks and loved every bit of the job. Yes, it was hard. Yes, she had a lot to do in very little time but she was a fighter. And she would show them that things may get tough but she was tougher.
Mrs. Fredrickson and Lawrence both looked towards the opening of the elevator. Lawrence’s eyes widened slightly as, to his surprise, his heart skipped a beat and he caught himself staring again... longer than he should have.
