To my mom, Rosa, who I love more than words can ever express. You helped me discover my passion for reading, which led to writing, and you’ve never let me give up. I love you dearly, Mommy.
To Matt and Abigail. It began with an idea; from there it took courage to write your story, but I never gave up on you. You never once steered me wrong. This isn’t a goodbye, but an unspoken ending for now. Because of you, I am the author that I am today and you’ll always live in my heart. I will love you both forever.
To Cezanne, who gave me thrust and mix, touché, and all the other brilliant lines during our blue box conversations. Yamara, who gave me DP, you know that girl was you ;). Both are my BFFs who live in a blue box and I don’t know what I’d do without them. Good morning and goodnight.
To my editor and heroine, Edee Fallon. You were always a text or phone call away to convince me to not kill a certain person, but most of all, you helped pull me from my writer’s block by talking me through it.
Missy Stegman and Janett Gomez, thank you for being my second pair of eyes. You ladies rock and I’m keeping you.
Chelsea Camaron, thank you for all the phones calls that dragged me out of my slump.
Renee, aka Reading Renee, thank you for answering my endless medical questions concerning how to keep someone alive.
To Becca Manuel, without your persistence to give Matt and Abigail a FaceTime conversation, it would have never occurred. That scene is dedicated to you.
To my street team, The Beautiful Girls, thank you for all your support and helping me believe this story was worth writing. To my beta group, thank you for guiding me in the right direction.
To Sarah Hansen of Okay Creations, without a doubt you’ve made my stories come to life with your amazing covers. You always know how to take my breath away.
To Erin McKinley Carnevale, who gave me permission to add her in these acknowledgements. Thanks for being such an awesome fan.
Last, but not least, to all the readers, and bloggers who took the time to read the Unspoken Series. Without you I wouldn’t have a reason to write. Thank you from the bottom of my heart.
