Big shout out to my lil sis from another miss, Emma V. for letting me brainstorm the hell out of Angelblood with you. So love, much wow.
Huge thanks to my beta readers: Caz and Laura for picking up on any errors that I missed.
Big thanks to my editor, Christie from Proof Positive. I couldn’t keep producing good work without you.
To my Q-House family (Sophie, Rosi and Bea, you count as fam too), thanks for being my family away from home. Extra love to my ‘wifey’ Caz for cooking me dinner and reminding me to eat.
Thank you, thank you, thank you to the bloggers who have consistently supported the Dark Angel series, especially: Naomi from Nomis Paranormal Palace, Jenny from I Heart Books, Melanie from Book Passion for Life, Bookshifter from Night Owl Reviews, Jackee from Come to Me Fantasy Blog, and the lovely ladies from Lovers of Paranormal GR group and Never Too Old for YA GR group. I’ve probably forgotten some people but that speaks to the holes in my memory instead of my lack of appreciation for you.
Angeldust
To my dad, mum and brother. Even though we each occupy a different country, I feel your love and support. Thank you for always being there.
To my fabulous friends (you know who you are). Thank you for maintaining your connections with me as I gallivant across this big wide world. You keep me sane and give me human-type interactions rather than my imaginary ones to color my day (and keep me out of straitjackets). Special shout-outs to Emma and Dani, who cop the majority of my writing rantings. Big love.
To my beta readers, Dani and Laura: you rock. Period. This book wouldn’t be what it is without your feedback.
Thanks to Tiffany Hood for emailing in that silly error!
To Christie from Proof Positive, truly I couldn’t (and wouldn’t want to) publish anything without you.
To Romac Designs. I love my new covers! They beautifully tie this whole series together.
To the amazing bloggers out there who read and reviewed and supported my Dark Angel series. Deepest thanks and appreciation and if I could feed you all your weight in brownies to say thanks then I would! ;)
Afterlife
I always get stressed doing these because I inevitably forget someone. It’s a sign of my sieve-memory not because I don’t appreciate you!
Big thank you to Mounia and Elly. My gorgeous ladies! I adore you both to pieces. I can’t believe we will soon be at three points of the globe. What? Who am I going to hash out plot points with? Whose tinder dates am I going to get to laugh at? Write dino-porn with (LOL!)? Reunion in NYC!
To my beta team! Big love to Dani, you are always ready to listen to my plot ranting and have endless patience for when my story changes AGAIN. Thanks to Kathy from Just Let Me Read for being an early reader and your invaluable advice. And to Shannon who picked up on those final errors.
To Terrie from Just Another Book Bitch, my social media goddess and assistant. You are the calm to my loaded gun! My friend and team mate. Be in my life always.
Thanks to Romacdesigns.com for your work on the cover and for doing that wicked riddle image for me at the last minute! I’m a demanding client (I know) but you always treat my projects and ridiculous requests with such professionalism. You rock!
Thank you to Christie (and Anita) from Proof Positive for your editing help. As always, invaluable.
Big thank you to my bloggers who read and reviewed Afterlife, especially to Lillian from Mom with a Reading Problem, Bookshifter (your secret identify is safe with me) from Night Owl Reviews & Jenn from I Heart Books who have been there since the very beginning.
To my Fantasy VIP Readers. You guys! Big love for all your support. Special shout out to my early ARP readers and reviewers! There are too many of you to list here but know I read every one of your reviews.
Thank you to my Dark Angels Facebook group for your cover votes, for reading my early chapter one and for your friendship. Hugs to you all!
Lastly, my family and friends. For your love and keeping me sane. And to moj sve, for your love and patience (and all those washed dishes) even when I become unacceptably eccentric and a poor housemate. I love you, in this life and the next.
