I can’t believe the Everything Series has come to a close. It feels so bittersweet. I am extremely proud of myself for accomplishing this, but I am so sad to say goodbye to these characters with whom I’ve fallen head-over-heels in love. If you love them as much as I do, you don’t need to worry. They’ll make appearances in future books. And let’s not forget about all those babies…I’m sure they’ll be demanding their stories be told at some point in the future, so we can all catch up with the Blackman Boards crew again.

First and foremost, I need to thank my husband, Jeff. My first completed series would hardly have been possible without all the love, support, and encouragement you’ve given me. You provided me with the inspiration behind this series and my appreciation goes beyond what words can ever express. Thank you for all you’ve done over the course of time that I was writing and publishing the Everything Series. I could list it all, but you already know. I love you.

To my babies, J&J: I hope one day when you’re older you realize that this has always been about the two of you. I love you more than you’ll ever know.

To my loyal readers: Thank you hardly seems like enough. Your unwavering support, encouragement, and kind words mean everything to me. I hope I can continue to deliver stories to you with which you’ll fall in love.

To S.H.—Nikki and Luke’s cover is perfect! Thank you for creating such a beautiful series of covers. I can’t wait to see what’s next! !

To S.B.—Thank you, once again, for making this series look so beautiful. Working with you is always a breeze. Your professionalism is a rare find.
