Acknowledgments

I owe huge debts of gratitude to Fenske’s Frisky Posse for all the eagle-eyed reads, amazing reviews, and general cheerleading. You guys are the awesomest street team in the history of street teams (here’s where you gently point out that “awesomest” isn’t a word).

Much love to Kait Nolan for all the self-pub coaching and long-distance tea and wine drinking parties, not to mention sleeping with me in Denver.

Huge, humongous, ENORMOUS love to Linda Grimes for all the amazing feedback. Can I have your next book now?!?!

Thank you to Meah Meow for being the best combination author assistant/pet sitter/all-around awesome person I know. I couldn’t do this without you!

Much love and thanks to Susan Bischoff and Lauralynn Elliott of The Forge for all your hard work whipping this bad boy into shape. I’m also super-grateful to Lori Jackson Design for the fantastic teaser graphics, banners, and bookmarks.

Love and gratitude to my family, Aaron “Russ” Fenske and Carlie Fenske (and Paxton now, too!) and Dixie and David Fenske for always being there. Thanks also to Cedar and Violet for being badass amazing stepkids. And for enduring a stepmother who curses a lot and writes naughty books.

Thanks especially to Craig, who designs my covers, formats my newsletters, updates my website, makes my toes curl, and sends my heart racing on a regular basis. Love you, hot stuff.
