ACKNOWLEDGMENTS

My heartfelt thanks to Nancy Schumacher and the whole team at Fire and Ice Young Adult Books.

My utmost appreciation goes out to my family, for cheering me on, holding my hand, and supporting me every step of the way. To my sister, Deanne-Deanne, my writing guardian angel; I couldn’t have done any of this without her constant encouragement and positivity. She was Clover’s first and biggest fan and I will forever be grateful (Team Finn!).

Thank you to my readers, Alethea Semian and Heidi Denman, for tirelessly proofreading my drafts and providing insightful input along the way.

Boundless thanks to my husband, Bobby, who believed in me even before I did. Achieving my dreams is made easy with him by my side.

Finally, my profound gratitude goes out to the readers who read and enjoyed Clover. If not for them, Fae’s Ascent would never have come to be.
