And Nina with Valentine PR, man, this is our FIRST major release since you started your own management company, and I'm so proud of you for taking a leap of faith! This has been such a crazy ride last year, and this year, I'm so thankful God brought us together! You're not allowed to leave me! Haha.
Judi, my strategist, who always has the best ideas on how we can gain a bigger following—thank you for listening to my crazy and going yup, let's do it.
To my agent Erica who again, doesn't call me crazy when I email her and go okay so I'm going to write a book about aliens… she just goes send it to me!

Becca, thank you for an amazing trailer! I so appreciate it and the support you give!
Thank you to all the authors who read early, you know who you are, to all the text messages, DM's, thank you for promoting me and believing in me and thank you for not laughing at me when I asked you to read an early copy! And Amo, your review will forever be imprinted on my soul, girl!
To the readers, aghhhhhhh, I want to cry. This book truly is for you. It's blood, sweat, tears, it's me finally letting go, I've always wanted to write a mafia book like this, and I'm so proud to say I finally did it. I wrote a book where I didn't censor my characters in any way, I didn't edit out any language, anything that I felt might be too much, I just let them live and breathe, and your response has been amazing! Thank you for understanding, thank you for standing by my side, ride or die, you are the best readers in the world!
To the bloggers who read early copies and shared, I adore you guys, your love for books makes doing what I do so much fun. You all work so hard and have such thankless jobs, it's the love of books that keeps you going, and I respect that so much. Thank you for taking a chance on Ruthless Princess!
