Acknowledgments

First of all, a huge thank you to Rochelle French for her help throughout this project. Working with you has improved not only this story, but made me a better writer. Thank you so much!

I’d also like to thank Nina Bruhns for reading an early version of this story. Your suggestions were spot on, and they have been instrumental in how I have planned and written stories ever since.

A huge thank you to Regan Summers for reading I don’t know how many versions of this book. You’re a badass. And thank you to Kerry Vail for your insights through several versions of this story as well. I couldn’t do this without you guys.

I want to give a huge thanks to my family, my critique partners, my editors, and my wonderful publicity and marketing folks at Entangled Publishing.

A special thank you to my husband for supporting me in the scary decision to go for this writing dream. My mother for never faltering in her faith. My family for their unlimited optimism. And my agent, Jill Marsal, for her guidance and help.
