To Jen, my super awesome editor who always makes my crap look and sound amazing, you have no idea how much I adore you. Thanks for loving my work, pushing me, and working your ass off to make it the best product that it could possibly be. I’m forever grateful.

To the bloggers, those who I have worked with before and those who decided to take a chance on my book, THANK YOU! You are an author’s lifeline and I am so grateful for you. Ena Burnette, you are an amazing woman. You’ve gone above and beyond for me, and I couldn’t be more thankful.

To my writing girls, Karina, Claribel, Gail, Syreeta, Emmy, Trevlyn, and Madeline. I’m not really sure if I would have much sanity if it weren’t for you girls. And Madeline, you know I owe you more than I could ever pay. You’ve done things for me that were above and beyond friendship. I’m eternally grateful.

Shanora, you’re my right hand in all of this. Your kind words, your advice, your shoulder to cry on and your ears to listen have given me such strength along this journey. Thank you so much.

To Najla and Jen, the cover and the aesthetic appeal do not go unnoticed. Your ladies have a gift. Thank you so much for making my book so beautiful.

To my friends and family. You know me better than most. I know that I’m crazy and when I get an idea, it consumes me and I run with it. You all have listened to me talk, scream, cry, and vent about these characters and this book, and you are still there, rooting me on. Unconditional love is what I call it, and I am grateful for it.

And last, but certainly not least, to the readers. Where the hell would I be without you? For those who have loved my previous work, to those taking a chance on me for the very first time, I can’t say it enough how incredibly lucky I am to have you. I could write a million books, but if you didn’t read and recommend them to others, they wouldn’t reach very many people. You mean the world to me. THANK YOU! 

The Author

I am a proud Marine Corps wife, married to my very own “Alex,” with two kids, living in the beautiful state of Hawaii.

My lifelong love of books made me pursue a career in education where I was quite content until I had to move again for my husband’s career. I decided to follow my dreams of writing a book. Now, here I am.

I look forward to hearing from you…
