Read more about the condition New: A new, unread, unused book in perfect condition with no missing or damaged pages. Such an inspiring story and I have so much respect for Sandra and how she has made her way through life. Rising from the ‘grime’ of Gorton, Manchester, Sandra breaks convention and rises into the sheets with the rich and powerful.

but Sandra together with Alfred are playing the hand that life dealt them with shear determination and will power, many would have given in at the first of many hurdles, this book is honest and sometimes sad, bizarre and kinky. What a wonderful read, a real emotional roller coaster, “life is like a game of cards the hand you are dealt is DETERMINISM the way you play it is FREE WILL i am not sure who said this! Rising from the 'grime' of Gorton, Manchester, Sandra breaks convention and rises into the sheets with the rich and powerful.

This is a must read page turning true account of an honest mothers love for her son, her survival, integrity and humanity for others along her journey. The layers of sacred promises, illicit secrecy and hidden intimacy are peeled back to reveal pleasure and purity. It made me cry, laugh and simply shake my head, sometimes in horror and sometimes in amazement at how this incredible Lady simply survived and kept her sanity.

Harrowingly honest and strangely uplifting, this is a courageous testimony written from the soul of a unique, if not peculiar, woman whose tale transcends political and legal struggles. The author of this book has been, and still remains, a sex worker - and she takes genuine pleasure and pride in her trade. Holding nothing back, the illicit encounters and rampant rendezvous, be they Premier League stars or Irish VIPs, all are weaved in. Sandra is a supermum who's appreciation of the Country, UK, the City, Manchester, and the area,Gorton, that has adopted her and her Son, shines like the brightest light on the darkest night. Likewise, when Sandra's life was bursting with experience of scandal, abuse, to rubbing shoulders with the rich and well-heeled, she retains nothing but reveals it all, to the fullest.It is not pretty (though she herself is, and she shines like a beacon) and her story can be disconcerting in places. If you are expecting a salacious book filled with graphic descriptions of serial sexual I was encounters, forget it. Sandra makes no apologies for the road that she took and I, for one, don’t believe that she should have to.

It is a heartwarming fight of a gracious mother, desperate to get her son the medical care he so vitally needs, whilst his father seeks only to exploit him. This is a book, written from the heart, of an amazingly resilient woman who has survived the most vicious of life's tornadoes and come out the other side with a heart and soul full to overflowing with love. Written with honesty, passion and no little mastery of the written word,I found it compelling reading. But don’t expect a smorgasbord of descriptive sexual encounters – it is more a story of why and how she came to be where she is today – though the story may not appeal to those who are overly prudish or who consider that engaging in sexual acts purely with the objective of pleasure to be somehow ‘wrong’. So tragic, yet tremendously inspiring, her feats of strength take you into the dark heart of modern Britain that perhaps you have never seen before.
