I wrote this book while I was pregnant with my first child. I also went through the whole editing and re-editing process between nappy changes and midnight feeds. I sacrificed spending time with my baby girl to have Dark Desire ready to go out into the world, but that wouldn’t have been possible without some pretty remarkable people. I couldn’t have done it without the help of my truly amazing husband, my friend Katie or my in-laws and my mother who all traveled great distances to help out when they could.
To my husband, his wealth of military knowledge and personal experiences has helped shaped Mason into a ‘real’ marine. There aren’t too many men out there who wouldn’t bat an eyelid answering questions about guns and war zones.
I also need to say thank you to my brother. As with the first book, he kept me on track and focused on the end result.
And to Joel and Tara, thanks for the emailing sessions and phone calls to try make Dark Desire the best that it could be. Thanks for taking a chance on me and my characters, and for being so flexible with my crazy life.
