Thank you to Jessica Walker for editing this on such a time crunch. Your edits made this story shine. I’ve been doing this for many years, but I’ve never had an editor who understood my writing the way you do. I’ve said it before, but I’ll say it here in a more official capacity.
You complete me.
Thanks to Rob Bierman, who posed for his photographer during two separate sessions just to get the right shot. It’s been an honor to feature you on your very first cover, not only for a book I’ve written but also for Clean Reads. And thanks for putting up with all of my annoying texts. This was a ton of fun! Just remember us little guys when you’re famous.
Oh, the places you’ll go!
Thanks to Gail Delaney, my frenemy (but mainly just friend) at Desert Breeze Publishing who never realized she had anything to do with this. You sent me one of your own books a few months ago that featured an older heroine and younger hero, which spawned the foundation of this short story. I could never dream to tell a story as fascinating and remarkable as your parents’ love story, but I did have fun writing something a little different.
I hope you Feel My Love.
