I dedicate this book to the men and women who fight, and have fought, to keep our country free by putting their lives on the line. It’s often a thankless and misunderstood job. I thank you!
I’d like to thank my critique partner, Vikki Vaught, for her encouraging words. A special thanks goes to the expedient Marci Boudreaux for editing this novella and making me change it into a better book. Thank you, Dana Burk, for the fast proofreading and final check. Many thanks to Laura DeNicola for naming a character and sharing her knowledge of the Norfolk area and the Navy. I want to thank my husband for creating the suspense black moment and figuring out how it could be done.
I want to sincerely thank Becky McGraw for introducing me to Cat Johnson. Cat, I was so thrilled to be part of your Hot SEALs Kindle World. Also, thank you Cat Johnson for granting me permission for the use of the characters of Guardian Angel Protection Services, aka GAPS, from her Hot SEALs Series world in this book. Thank you seems completely inadequate but is genuinely heartfelt.
