An extra massive, extra special thank you to my brilliant editor, Nia, who has been an absolute joy to work with on this book. Thanks to you, and to the entire HQ team, for all of your hard work.
Big thanks to my wonderful readers, who continue to read and review my books. When I hear that someone really enjoyed one of my stories, or it got them through an especially hard time, it reminds me of the main reason I do this.
Thank you so much to James, the genius behind my beautiful website (portiamacintosh.com). I had no idea putting together a website could be so much fun, although that may be down to his karaoke throughout.
A special thank you to Aud, who might just be my number one fan. You’re one hell of a lady.
Thank you to Kim, for all of your promotion, love and support. I have no idea where I’d be without you.
Huge thanks to Joey, master of the English language. Thanks for listening to me bang on about weird story ideas and for all your proof-reading-work. I promise to always do the same for you (even though your material is way weirder).
Finally, an extra big thank you to Joe. Thanks for always taking care of me. From helping me come up with ideas to proof reading to just generally keeping me sane. I’m not sure if you laugh at my jokes because they’re funny, or just because you love me, but I don’t mind either way. I love you, chief.
