Dedication

First, I’d like to dedicate this book to my mother for supporting me one hundred percent even though she didn't know what my book was about
and
to the rest of my family for
accepting me even when they often
see
me talking to myself
and last but not least to the entire Secret Cravings Publishing staff for bringing Roxanne’s Redemption to life. Thank you
.

Chapter One

“Do you know who Sam’s replacement is?” Barbara asked for the third time.

Roxanne frowned as she shook her head in answer
.
Ever
since Sam announced that he was getting a transfer to the South Carolina branch last night
,
Barbara
had
kept asking
Roxanne the
same question.
The first time was last night at Sam’s going away party after he informed them that
,
as
two of his children
were
in their third year of college and the last one was about to start
,
his wife wanted to move somewhere that wasn’t as busy as New York and he had agreed. No one wanted him to leave, but everyone respected his decision.

“Meeting in five,” Dave said as he walked pas
t
.

Almost twenty minutes later Roxanne looked around the conference room
and almost smiled when she saw all her colleagues occupying their time
as they waited for Mr. Simon
,
the exec of the New York branch
,
to come
in
and announce who would be taking Sam’s place as manager.
Almost palpable
relief
ran round the room at
a brief knock on the door.
At the sound of the door opening,
Roxanne turned in her chair to look at the newcomer and she felt lightheaded
with
a sudden
rush of
desire that took her by surprise
.

The man was
about six feet with an athletic build
,
blond hair and blue eyes. He wasn’t handsome in the
usual
sense of the word but he was good-looking
. As an African American girl, dating outside her race had never occurred to
Roxanne
. She had nothing against other races, but
she’d always assumed
she would marry a nice black man whenever she was ready, but it seem
ed
like destiny ha
d
other plans for her.

“Hello. My name is Daniel
and I’ll be replacing
Sam.”

After the introduction Roxanne listened as he informed everyone that
,
although he wouldn’t do things the same as Sam
,
the end result would always be the same,
and then
about five minutes later he conclude
d
the meeting.
