In the editing of this novella, I discovered that Wisconsin has given me some experiences that aren’t universal. So, I’d like to thank my Midwestern upbringing for puppy chow, snowstorms, and rural drives.
My husband named Jacked and Twisted. Hooray, Adam! Thank you for informing so much of what I write in so many ways.
To my editors, critique partners, beta readers, and proofreaders, thank you! Special thanks to Robin Patchen, Judy DeVries, Robyn Hook, Jessica Bradley, Sarah Strong, Kendra Arthur, and Jane Bradley. It’s because of you that the story has extra Christmas cheer, gift wrap didn’t magically change colors, poor Bruce didn’t up and disappear, and so much more.
Awestruck’s fan club used to be just one member strong. Fandom is absolutely better with friends. Thanks for reading these stories and caring about these characters.
Jesus, no one has ever gone to greater lengths than you to spend time with me. Thank you for righting what went wrong in our relationship when I could not and for ensuring I could spend not only Christmas with you, but all of eternity.
