As always, I have to start by thanking the amazing girls over at CTP, Rebecca, Courtney and Marya, who gave me this opportunity to share my words with the world. Without them, I would not be doing what I love.

Some special thanks have to go to Marya, who creates the most beautiful covers, even better than I could have imagined.

Melanie Newton,

Sometimes in life we meet someone who becomes so very important to us, even over the vastness of distance. I look forward to the day I get to tell you in person,

just how special you are. X

Not all hero’s wear capes.

But they do share in my obsession for Tom Hardy x

Thanks to those who made sure all

Night of the Hunter was in tip top condition,

Emily and Pam.

My Parents,

How lucky am I, to have two people who push me hard to achieve my dreams,

and encourage me to be more than I think I am.

Love you guys.

Aisling,

For taking me on a breath-taking tour of Paris, one that will be etched in my memory for years to come. And for making sure I actually ate! Lol Drinking wine and eating ice-cream by the Eiffel Tower will forever be a fave memory of mine.

It was amazing to see the strong, independent, and beautiful woman you have grown up to be.

Merci beaucoup. X

Uncle David,

Thanks for all the help in getting me to Paris!

To the Readers,

Who pick me up when I feel down, who ask me questions, who keep reading and loving this world I have created.

Words will never be enough to express how much I appreciate each and every one of you.
