Born to a poor teenage mother in rural Jamaica, Lorna experienced poverty, abandonment, and abuse. She boarded a plane to Canada on her own as a teenager with no guarantee of a visa, eventually gaining citizenship. Lorna defied the odds, overcoming poverty to graduate from university with an honors degree in social work while becoming the mother of two young children. Her passion for learning and helping people transform their lives has led her to work in 5 different countries, where she's taught and inspired thousands globally. Her compelling story of confronting the truth of her paternity was featured in an anthology published in 2018. Lorna's latest work is her first autobiography account that details her early upbringing, life lessons learned through major life setbacks, and the exhilaration experienced in defying the odds.

One heiress. One normal guy. A love that will stand the test of time. A family that won't. Victoria Smith is born rich and beautiful. She has fame and a name that opens any door. But there's one thing she doesn't have: Love. Not until she meets Australian, Jeff Richardson, anyway. Despite her family's objections to her marrying a "nobody" Victoria chooses love over money. And as they build a family, Victoria learns where true wealth lies: Love is the Richardson's way. But as Victoria builds a business empire of her own, she has to navigate her family through the challenges of growing up rich. The Smiths made sure she understood that money talks. But she wants the Richardsons to believe that love is the greater gift. When tragedy strikes, will love see their family through? Or will love fail in a world obsessed with wealth?
