A book is never written in a vacuum and there are always people to thank and credit for the project getting all the way to the “published” stage.
Husband – thank you for being mine, and for loving me as I am. In this life and the next, my love.
Chipmunk – I am the luckiest mama in the world. You are so kind, smart, and funny, and I love that you think mama writing a book is “so cool.”
Wifey – I couldn’t do this (or life) without you. As a very wise fictional character said, “Family don’t end in blood.”
Melissa Wolfe – Thank you for being a friend!
Blue Saffire – Look, I did it again!
My writing community – Jeannie Moon, Patty Blount, Zoe York, Carrie Lomax, Stacey Agdern, Jayne Rylon, Eve Pendle, Brighton Walsh, Katie Lillig, Kate Nolan, Lexi Ryan, Tara Wyatt, Sophie Andrews: I couldn’t do any of this without you.
Holland Rae – My late-night writing buddy, I don’t know what I’d do without your support and help.
Rebecca – Thank you for your help with this book!
Kristina P. – Proofreader extraordinaire, thank you! I’d like to note that any typos or mistakes in this book are my own and probably because I ignored her advice.
Naomi Lane – Thank you for putting up with me changing my mind a bunch of times before the cover was perfect! Give your fur babies kisses from me!
Bellevue Crew – Couldn’t do this Mom thing without ya’ll.
My family and friends – I love you all so much and appreciate your encouragement and support!
Nyx & Lila – you two are my best buddies, and I love getting to spend the days with you wild pups. Thank you for loving Chipmunk as much as you do and being the best older furry siblings to him. I love you both, and writing wouldn’t be the same without your company.
My readers - thank you. I hope you liked the book, but I also know not every book is going to be everyone’s cup of tea. It doesn’t matter if you’re a new-to-me reader or someone who has read one of my other books, thank you for giving this story a chance.
