Read Take Your Time (Fate and Circumstance #2) Online
Authors: Leddy Harper
Anyone who knows me, knows I do NOT like country music. Not one bit. But my friend Stacy (in her plight to convert me to the twang) made me listen to Sam Hunt. I will admit, I like him. And the day I finished writing
Falling to Pieces
, I got in my car and turned on my music. Sam Hunt came on. And
Take Your Time
was born. It hit me so hard I went home and immediately began working on the prologue.
I have to say, I think Bentley is one of my most favorite male leads I’ve ever written, and I have a feeling his cousin, Luke, will follow in his footsteps. It seems the
Fate and Circumstances
series won’t leave me alone.
Needless to say, thanks to Sarah Nickles, I now like Brantley Gilbert, and I’m not too thrilled about the amount of country songs on my playlist. I feel the need to overcompensate with alternative music.
Please pray for me. If I own a pair of cowboy boots before this series is over, call the men in white coats.
Sarah…I love you to the once-upon-a-time planet Pluto and back an infinite number of times. Thank you for being my friend, and letting me use you and parts of you for this story. You’ll forever live in these pages. I’d be lost without you!
My family. I say it every single day, but I’ll say it here, too. Thank you. Thank you for making dinner when I’m too focused on a scene. Thank you for getting up early on a day off because I stayed up too late writing. Thank you for interrupting my writing and making me watch Breaking Bad. Thank you. I love you, all of you.
We all have our heroes, and mine have always been my grandparents. I now have one hero in heaven, but the other is still here and supports me with her encouragement and pride. Thank you, Mimi. Hearing your thoughts on my books mean the world to me!
Julie, Clarissa, and Kimmi…you three have become a support system I’d crumble without. You may not always know it, but your friendship means the world to me.
Shari, I know you’ll never read this, but thank you for listening and helping me through the rough spots. I love your face.
Amanda—my BIFFLE—you’ve always been there for me every step of the way, even though you’re not big into this book stuff, and I love you even more for that.
Josie! I sing your praises from the mountaintops, well…those don’t exist in Florida, but you know what I mean. You rock! Best editor EVER! (the capitalization was needed there…italics just wouldn’t do.)
Neda. Where do I start with you? Oh, I know... “You’re always right.” I adore you and can’t thank you enough for all you’ve done for me!
Marlo... You truly are one of the most important people in the world to me. You are my sanity when I’m crazy, my laughter when I’m sad, and the voice of reason when I’m dangling off a cliff. It doesn’t matter that we are separated by land, water, and time…you are closer to me than I think you’ll ever know. I love you, Lobs.
Kirsten, my country Bumpus. I owe you a bottle of fireball! It’s about time for that road trip! xo, Leddy Bear.
Leigh Ann. You may want to beat the defiance out of me until your hands are tingly and I’m numb, but you’re still a whore. All I have to say is, #GFY. (You, too, Stephie!) But honestly, thank you so much for your help!!! I value you more than you know!
Crystal, I’m succeeding in turning you into a reader, and I love every second of it! I love your enthusiasm and your support. I love you, Best Friend!
Amy Davis—I love your feedback and willingness to help me at a moment’s notice. You are the best! Thank you so much!
Lauren. All I have to say is “Thank God for the post office!” Seriously, who finds their #POS at the friggin’ post office?? We do! Thank you for all your help!
To the Lovelies, thank you for all the fun in the group! And for your encouragement when I’ve needed it. Danielle and Doreen, you’re creative ways to make me write are…interesting LOL! “Don’t make me tag Sarah”! You guys rock!
It seems my list gets longer and longer with each book. And I think that is the sweetest part of this entire journey. Just knowing I have all these people and more to count on when I need it during the grueling writing process is so humbling and exciting. Thank you all!
Bloggers, readers, writers, people of the world! Thank you for giving me a chance. Whether you loved it or hated it, thank you for picking up my book! It really means everything to me!
I know I’ve probably forgotten a few…it seems to be my thing. But just know, that doesn’t mean I don’t love you or value you. It simply means I’m losing my mind. Then again, I hear voices in my head, so I think I’ve lost my mind years ago
