ACKNOWLEDGMENTS
Thank you to everyone who waited patiently for Zane and Isabelle’s story! The two characters needed a little time before they got together, and it was definitely worth it for both of them in the end.
Thank you to our Facebook friends who are hockey fans, Kara Schoenecker, Shauna Clonkey, Raven Lais, and Heidi Sohler. You supplied Isabelle with her verbal ammo at the end of the book.
Thank you to our editor, Jovana Shirley, our cover designer, Viola Estrella, and our PR rep Nazarea Andrews. You all do awesome work, as always.
Thank you to our beta readers, ARC readers, and bloggers. Our books wouldn’t be the same without all of you!
And thank you to our families for being supportive and understanding.
ABOUT THE AUTHORS
R.L. Kenderson is two best friends writing under one name.
Renae has always loved reading, and in third grade, she wrote her first poem where she learned she might have a knack for this writing thing. Lara remembers sneaking her grandmother’s Harlequin novels when she was probably too young to be reading them, and since then, she knew she wanted to write her own.
When they met in college, they bonded over their love of reading and the TV show Charmed. What really spiced up their friendship was when Lara introduced Renae to romance novels. When they discovered their first vampire romance, they knew there would always be a special place in their hearts for paranormal romance. After being unable to find certain storylines and characteristics they wanted to read about in the hundreds of books they consumed, they decided to write their own.
One lives in the Minneapolis/St. Paul area and the other in the Kansas City area where they’re a sonographer/stay-at-home mom/wife and pharmacist/mother by day, and they’re a sexy author by night. They communicate through phone, email, and whole lot of messaging.
You can find them at http://www.rlkenderson.com, Facebook, Instagram, Tumblr, Twitter, and Goodreads. Join their Facebook Reader Group. Or you can email them at [email protected], or sign up for their newsletter here. They always love hearing from their readers.
