Acknowledgments

I t takes a village to write a book, from the sacrifices my family makes, to the help and support I get from my friends, family, and peers along the way. I could not have written Fault Lines without the following people :

M i Familia. I love you dearly. Thank you for supporting my dreams even when it means sacrifices for you…like shitty takeout instead of home cooked meals. There aren't words adequate to express my love for you .

K .L. Grayson. Your help and encouragement pushed me to the finish line. Thank you for helping me plot, forcing me to write when I wanted to quit, and reading and finessing Fault Lines. I love you .

S arah Arndt. Your help, opinions, and critical eye made Fault Lines better. Thank you for your help .

A .L. Jackson. Thank you for always being there…to listen to me bitch, pushing me to write when I just want to sleep, and to lend your eye and opinion to my stories. They are better because of you .

T o my "Fab Four". Your laughing keeps me going in this crazy business. I love us .
