What People Are Saying About
Love Addicted!
Love
Addicted is a book every woman should read, regardless of race, color or age. DeBora's experiences translate to our
own. She writes with conviction and humor about a subject near and dear to us all from our teens to our tottering years.
We never give up hope of finding love and affection and DeBora's journey toward maturity is one we can all learn
from.
-Antonia Villi Miner, former Public Relations Director,
Good Housekeeping Magazine
I am so sure that you don't remember
me but I met you at a book signing sometime back and just wanted to let you know that your book was instrumental in helping
me to change the course of my life. Thank you. I will never forget Love Addicted! -Letrice Gant
First things first. You are an awesome
woman with an awesome message. I thank God for you. Your book had an impact on me that I just can't put into words. I do know
that I am on a better path now, and that is why I had to share it with the residents at the lodge. -Tracie
Jiggetts, My Sister's Place Lodge
I am so pleased to share with you the feedback
that I received from my clients when I read an excerpt from your book. Some of my clients have been in the welfare system
for more than 10 years as mothers and now as grandmothers, still depending on aid. After reading the excerpt, I asked one
simple question, "Where is this person today?" Both women and men were stunned that you could still move forward
in your life and become a successful writer, attorney and speaker. I encourage you to continue to share your work with the
world. Thanks for the gift.
-Cassandra Nwosu,
Director, Welfare to Work Program
What a beautifully honest and inspiring
account of an addict's journey. DeBora has done a great service to humanity. Now, all that is needed is to get her and her
book on Oprah! -Charlie Dorsey
I stumbled on this book at a poetry reading
and had the pleasure of meeting Ms. Ricks there. Her book spoke to me so personally (even down to the 6 year relationship
that went no where)and helped me to walk away from my addiction to men and focus on ME! The book also names other important
reads, quotes, and people to get additional assistance from. -Soulful
Sistah "Never Wasting the Pretty"
There is so much I want to tell you
I just don't know how to adequately express my thoughts in words. I finally got around to reading you book and I have to tell
you I finished it in two days! I couldn't put it down. This book is really a great prototype for understanding the psychology
of the modern day Black woman. I am so glad that you were able to articulate your thoughts so clearly because in reading Love
Addicted I now have greater reverence for the humanity of Black women. -Randy,
25 year old Black man
Get the book! I am being blessed tremendously by this book.
It's like a good meal at a friend's house, I don't want it to end. I read the words and it's like having a sister right
in the room with you just giving it to you straight. I love it! I am enjoying the journey and looking forward to
the next one! -Felicia McConnell
