Author’s Note

Dear Reader,

Thank you so much for choosing to read
At the Brink
. Perhaps you’ve read
The Asset
? I write hot, smart romances about strong heroines struggling to find their place in the world and the brave, kick-ass military heroes who challenge their limits to protect the women they love. In my books, brawn + brains + heart = sizzling-hot heroes.

Because I write both romantic suspense and erotic romances, my novels come in two levels of heat. Some are hot. Some are really kinky hot.
At the Brink
is a gritty, complex, explicit erotic romance and belongs to the second category. So—and I’m smiling—you’ve been warned!

Enjoy,

AdM

Acknowledgments

I’m indebted to the brilliant crew at Carina Press, who transformed
At the Brink
into its final, beautiful form. I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again: Angela James, Kerri Buckley and the folks at Carina Press are a class act. They represent everything that’s fun and right about the publishing industry. Thanks, guys!

I’m particularly grateful to my amazing editor, Kerri Buckley, the hardest-working, most conscientious editor in the business, who challenged me at every turn to make
At the Brink
the best it could be. I’m so lucky I get to work with her. She’s a brave one, especially when you consider she was pining to edit a novella when she went for
At the Brink
. Talk about grit.

Special thanks also to my personal editor, Nancy Cassidy, for all of her guidance and for being an invaluable asset to all of my projects. Thanks to my friends and family, who put up with my frequent writing disappearances and who humble me with their love and support. And thanks for doing the laundry, honey. Again.

And finally, thanks to you, the reader, for giving my novels a chance. I know I’ve said the same thing on my website and in the acknowledgments for
The Asset
, but it’s absolutely true: there are some great authors writing some amazing romances out there, so thanks for choosing to read one of mine.

About the Author

Anna del Mar writes hot, smart romances that soothe the soul, challenge the mind and satisfy the heart. Her stories focus on strong heroines struggling to find their place in the world and the brave, sexy, kick-ass military heroes who defy the limits of their broken bodies to protect the women they love. She is the author of
The Asset
and
At the Brink
and several other novels scheduled for release from Carina Press in 2016.

A Georgetown University graduate, Anna enjoys traveling, hiking, skiing and the sea. Writing is her addiction, her drug of choice and what she wants to do all the time. The extraordinary men and women she met during her years as a navy wife inspire the fabulous heroes and heroines at the center of her stories. When she stays put—which doesn’t happen very often—she lives in Florida with her indulgent husband and two very opinionated cats.
