My Super Sweet Sixteenth Century found an audience with enthusiastic, wonderful readers, and not letting them down was forever at the forefront of my mind. I’m a reader first, so I know how many fabulous books are out there, and I’m so grateful and honored you chose to read this one. I hope Less, Austin, Cat, and Lucas gave you a fun and flirty escape from the real world. Thank you for reading!
Speaking of readers, my Flirt Squad rocks my world. This group of enthusiastic readers and bloggers made what could’ve been a terrifying, lonely, stress-filled debut year an absolute joy. They encourage and inspire me daily, are made of all things sparkly and awesome, and I’ve formed AMAZING friendships with them. A few in particular though went above and beyond, so here’s a HUGE Flirt Squad shout out to Ali Byars, Alicia Marie Ezell, Amy Fournier, Anubha Agrawal, Atmika Singh, Caitlyn Santi, Cassie Frye, Ciara Byars, Cynthia Bolasina, Daisy Richeson, Daphne from Winged Reviews, Denice Cordero, Denise Zaky, Diane Abbas, Erleen Alvarez, Gabriela Ledesma, Gaby Navarro, Hawwa Alam, Hikma Saleem, Jana Cruz, Jared Mifsud, Jenna DeTrapani, Joie de Lire, Justine Bowman, Katlyn Charlesworth, Kelsey Ketch, Kelsey Simpson, Kyra Morris, Laura Nuez, Mandy Reupsch, Megan Tuckerman, Myra White, Nobonita Chowdhury, Paige Bradish, Samantha Weck, Sara Ahmed, Staci Murden, Vi Nguyen, and Zoe Leonarczyk. Thank you, thank you, thank you! I love y’all!
Shannon Duffy, Trisha Wolfe, and Rose Garcia worked magic with this book, making me laugh with their comments, and smack my head against the desk catching my silly errors. Mindy Ruiz rocked so hard, answering random questions and advising me on fun activities for Austin’s challenges. And as always, emailing with Cindi Madsen, Tara Fuller, Lisa Burstein, and Melissa West kept me sane. The five of us debuted together, and I look forward to a long future of shared releases. Seriously, if it weren’t for these eight incredible ladies, I probably would’ve bitten off all my nails and eaten gargantuan amounts of ice cream. Oh wait…
So much love to Stephanie Kate Strohm and Fiona Paul. You ladies ROCK!! Jenna DeTrapani, Heather Self, Amber Troyer, Lisa T. Bergren, and Tiffany King, I’m blessed to know all of you. The crew at Houston YA/MG and West Houston RWA have taught me and inspired me more than I can say. Hugs, love, and gratitude to Lauren Hammond and Pam van Hylckama for believing in me and in my writing. My literary cheerleader, Tara Gonzales, my ninja goddess, Heather Riccio, and the angel in my corner, Kelly P. Simmon, work miracles, fill me up, and make me happy dance. I honestly don’t know what I’d do without you ladies.
Stacy Cantor Abrams and Alycia Tornetta—there are no words. But, I shall try (*grin*). For all the emails, for all the texts, for all the encouraging and hilarious comments about Austin’s muscles and Alessandra’s hair, thank you. For taking this story and making it better than I ever imagined it could be, thank you. For always having my back, thank you a thousand times over. I love you, I trust you, and I’m blessed to call you my friends. Liz Pelletier, thank you for giving my writing a home. By providing such a welcoming family at Entangled, I felt comfortable to take this story where it needed to go. Mwah!
And last on the page but first in my heart, my family deserves an entire book filled with thanks. My mother-in-law, Peggy, is a constant source of encouragement, my godmother-in-law, Joann, gifted me with my first ever book club visit (it was a blast!), and my cousin, Brookelyn, never fails to make me smile. My parents and brother live next door and help me in too many ways to name, so I’ll just say THANK YOU!!! My daughters, Jordan and Cali, are my biggest fans and publicists, making sure to tell anyone and everyone their mama is a writer. Their enthusiasm and support mean the world to this homeschooling mama’s heart. (Girls, I love you to infinity and beyond!) And finally, my husband, Gregg, is my rock. He came up with this title (good job, hun!), helped me figure out character arcs and plot holes, gifted me with hotel rooms away twice during drafting, and continues to tell me that he believes in me. He is the inspiration for every love story I write and is proof that a HEA can be found in the real world as well as fictional. SHMILY, baby!!
