To my amazingly talented cover designer Sarah Hansen of Okay Creations. (www.okaycreations.com) Your time, effort and work will never go unnoticed by me as will your insane amount of talent. This cover is absolutely perfect and I can’t tell you enough how much I love it. Thank you!
And then there are my betas, the girls who have been with me from the beginning. I adore each of you and not just for being willing to read my books without question, but also because of your friendship. Kelly, thank you for being my grammar queen. Your knowledge of commas, semi-colons and other random punctuation will always be unmatched by anyone. Not to mention your hilarious comments regarding my characters and your response to being killed off. Julie, this time around you have a job, you’re going to school and maintaining a social life, all while still living with your parents, but you always have time to read my books. Thank you for staying up till three in the morning to read my book and then texting me while driving to tell me how much you enjoyed it. There might be ten plus years between us, but that never mattered. Love you, cuz! Kristen, thank you for always standing by me and asking me how my writing was going even if it was in secret. Your note taking is ridiculous and so are your nonsensical ramblings and overthinking, but regardless, they made my book better. Natalie, there are many times I wish there wasn’t (or is it weren’t??) an ocean between us, it kinda sucks, but it never stopped you from helping me. Thank you for reading this one chapter by chapter. Your comments and messages are insanely useful and hilariously funny all at the same time. I will always owe you for all your help.
And he’s always last, but certainly not least, my wonderful husband, BJ. Thank you for everything. The list is endless and I’ll never be able to fit it all, but you know what I’m talking about. You’ve made your way into every book I’ve written in one way or another and I hope you don’t cringe when you come across those parts. Thanks for being cheeky so I always have writing material. I love you more than Zingers.
