efforts on your vacation to make this book possible. Your friendship is priceless, and you are, by far, one of the brightest lights in my life. Thank you so much! I love you, mon bébé!
Autumn—Your dedication, your devotion, your BELIEF in me, your friendship are all things I cherish more than words can express. You’ve been a boulder, not a rock. You’re my protector, my confidant, and my hero. I love you with all of my heart. Thank you so much for all you do and all you continue to do to keep me glued. You, my love, are beautiful in every way. Thank you.
Christy—So many books, so many memories. I could never have imagined we’d do so much together. I’m so thankful for your help, I could never thank you enough, but I’m mostly thankful for your steadfast friendship. I’m counting the days until we can again venture out together. We’ll always have Boston (BEST TRIP EVA), but I’m looking forward to many, many more.
Bex—Another one bites the dust. And the fact that you continue to deal with me is a miracle and one I won’t ever take for granted. Thank you for sending it one more time, every time. LOL. Thank you for keeping me in check, for answering my crazy messages, for keeping us sharp, organized, but mostly for sticking with me. I love you, babe. Friends first. Always.
Thank you to my amazing beta team—Kathy, Rhonda, Maria, Marissa, Maïwenn, Malene, Christy, Stacey. Without you, ladies, I would be clueless. Your encouragement keeps me. I love you all.
To my awesome proofers—Bethany, Joy, Marissa—Thank you for double-checking and seeing what I can’t when I’ve blinded myself. I’d be lost without your eagle eyes and the laughs you give. Love y’all.
Thank you to my KICK-ASS and ever-faithful ARC team. You ladies will never know just how grateful I am for your consistent faith and support. I love you all.
Thank you to Stacey Ryan Blake for being there, for playing on my imagination and knowing exactly what to do. For your endless patience, but most of all for being a friend. Twenty-three books together, baby! And you have never, ever let me down. Your genius is apparent, and I’m so happy and blessed to call you a friend.
Thank you, Sarah, of Okay Creations for bringing my vision for these covers to life.
Thank you to my incredible family for always having my back. I’m so glad we have each other, even with the miles between us. I’m so proud to be a part of the Scott family and take so much pride in each and every one of you.
Thank you to my sister, Angie, for skipping the movies and for the FaceTime that made EVERYTHING better. You lifted my head when I was too exhausted and kept it up. I love you.
Thanks to my little sis, Kristan, for always making me laugh, keeping me organized, and for being there, always. Love you bear.
Thank you to my incredible parents, Bob & Alta, who are now the best of my friends. You both are my heroes and continue to inspire me, to guide me, to console me. I’m so grateful for you both and love you more than I’ll ever be able to express. I would be so lost without you two.
Thank you to my husband, Nick, who just so happens to be my real-life raven, my hero, and has the tattoo to prove it. I could not do a day of this job without your support. You keep me alive, you keep me centered, grounded, and mostly, you keep me happy. Fifteen years isn’t enough, and fifteen more won’t be either. I love you. Thank you for choosing me, mon trésor.
