Acknowledgments
I can’t say thank you enough for this journey I’ve started. Thank you to everyone who has joined me. Your support has been absolutely unreal and like I said, I can’t thank you enough. If I could personally thank each and every one of you I would, but this will have to do!
I’ll never forget the first fan who told me how much they loved my first book. I was humbled completely and that’s when I knew everything I had worked for was worth it. Every person who has told me they liked it has absolutely made my heart soar. Thank you all so much!
Thank you to every single one of you who took the time to review the book whether good or bad. All of it just fueled me to keep going.
Thank you to my fiancé and my daughter who continued to put up with me sitting here day after day writing my heart out. Without their support, I wouldn’t have been able to do this. My fiancé supported me through this whole process helping me along the way. When I would get off work and jump straight on the computer, he would just ask me how it was all coming along. I love you both so very much.
A big thank you to my Dad for being my best friend and the best dad in the world!! I consider myself very lucky to have you as my dad. All I ever want to do is make you proud! I love you so much.
Thank you to my Mom, you are amazing and I love you so much. You’re the strongest woman I know and I hope to be as strong as you one day.
Thank you to my Maw Maw for all the Nancy Drew books she bought me growing up. She and my Granny always encouraged me to read and most importantly follow my dreams.
Thank you to all my family…there’s so many people to name...just know who you are and that I love you more than anything!
Thank you to my beta readers. No way could I have done this without them. I couldn’t have asked for a better group of ladies. I can’t wait to work with them again:
Alexis Durbin – Thank you for your friendship and honesty throughout this book. I seriously may have pulled my hair out if it hadn’t been for you. Thank you for answering any question I threw at you. Thank you for all the book recommendations too, I love talking books with you!
Tracey Murphy – Thank you for your complete honesty in this book. Thank you for your love for Wesley and hate for Brad! One of these days Brad will suffer! Thank you from the bottom of my heart for everything you’ve done!
Lisa Survillas – Thank you for taking a chance on this book and sharing your complete honesty with me. Thank you for your friendship throughout this and I look forward to working with you more and more.
Karen Derasmo – Thank you for agreeing to read over this last minute! You’re notes helped immensely and also had me cracking up. I hope we can work together again!
MaRanda McCandless – Thank you so much for reading over this last minute and thank you for kind words. I look forward to building this book relationship with you!
Thank you to Robin Harper for yet another amazing cover! I love you and couldn’t have done this without your support also. Thank you for also being a friend to me! One day we will meet, I know it :)
Thank you to my friend Kayla Leonard for always talking books with me and obsessing over just about the same characters I do. Thank you for always supporting me!
Last, I have to thank God for the ability to tell a story and the courage to live out my dreams. As long as there is someone out there who enjoys what I do, then I won’t stop.
I really hope I haven’t forgotten anyone. If so, I’m sorry.
All of your support means more than I could ever say so thank you again!!
