I never thought I’d be writing acknowledgments in the back of my own book, let alone a second one. The truth is that while I’ve always loved writing, it’s all of you who have made me want to continue. Seeing you read and love my characters make every single second worth it. So thank YOU. For reading, for (hopefully) enjoying, for supporting an indie author. I’m so grateful that you picked up my book.
To my best friend and bufflehead, Sav. You are without a doubt my soul sister. I’m so thankful to have found you. I don’t know that I’d be able to do this without you there to be my #1 hype woman and to talk me out of every single spiral that I go through. Love you! Cheers to the Smokies!
To my girls: Lee’Rain Jacquot, Greer Rivers, Kayleigh King. Thank you for your friendship and your motivation when I’m procrastinating. Y’all always push me to be the best and are the first ones to support when I need. I’m so lucky and thankful to have you in my corner.
To my beta readers: Thank you for being the ones who test run my stories—for always helping me work out the kinks, and for working with me on my ridiculously tight deadlines. You are invaluable to me. My books would not be what they are without you.
Sav R. Miller, Lee’Rain Jacquot, Greer Rivers, Kayleigh King, Garnet Christie, Michelle Chamberland, AV Asher, Clara Elroy, Ariel Mareroa, Melissa Whitman, Ashley Adams, Alison Butler
To my editor, Ellie and fairy proof mother, Rosa at My Brother’s Editor: Y’all already know. I promise to try and stop putting an s on the end of toward. (But I’ll probably forget.)
To my amazing cover designer, Clarise at CT Cover Creations: You are without a doubt one of the most talented people I’ve ever met. I’m so glad I found you!
To my Glammers: Where would I be without you? You guys are my #1 Hype Team and my internet family. The place where I can go to vent, laugh, cry, and talk about our favorite books. I’m so thankful for y’all to be on this crazy ride with me.
To the Bloggers and Bookstagrammers: Thank you for reading, reviewing, shouting out, making edits, spending your time on anything that has to do with my books. Indie authors would be lost without you.
To my family: Thank you for your constant support and cheerleading even though we all live so far away from each other. Again, #sorrynotsorry for the sex scenes. You know what you’re getting into at this point if you decide to read it.
To my husband Mike, Thank you for being my soulmate. For being my rock. For bringing home flowers and Sephora gift cards just because. And for bringing home champagne to toast with every success big or small. There’s nobody I’d rather experience life with than you. I love you and Melody more than anything.
To my daughter, Melody. You are the reason for everything.
