To our incredible team at Scale Management, the hard-working Andrew Graham and Anthony Mattero from Creative Artists Agency, Jason Sparchu our handsome business manager, Ashley Silver our cutthroat (but very sweet) lawyer, and everyone else who made this possible in the first place. Without you guys Paradise Island would have never existed.
To our family and friends for their constant love and support. You all have helped us become the people we are today, and we are so thankful that we can always count on you guys to be there through anything.
To our childhood best friends Nate Hardy and Alex Lorei, thank you for being a part of our lives since day one. Thank you for going along for this ride and being the main characters of this insane adventure. Can’t wait to continue these annual boys trips and see what we get into next.
And especially to Gaby Triana as well as everyone else who has put long hours into this book. Thank you for making this whole experience come to life. Gaby, we write at a fifth-grade level; thank you for taking our story up a notch…or three.
We feel extremely grateful to have the social media presence we do to allow us to work on a project like this. It’s always been a dream to one day write a book, and it’s all because of our supporters on social media as well as those mentioned above that this all happened. Again, thank you for everything.
—Sam and Colby
