First, thank YOU for picking up this book. I love that you trust me to entertain you.
* * *
This series happened because after I finished writing the Wicked trilogy, I couldn’t get Tyler and Annie out of my head. At first I thought they needed a book, but once I got into their story, I realized it was more involved.
* * *
Some of the best love stories take time to tell—time in my life to get it on paper, but more importantly, time in the characters lives to grow up, to make mistakes and learn, and for everything to align so they can finally get their hard-won reward.
* * *
That’s why these two get a trilogy. I hope their love, loss, and angst will tear you apart and make you whole again like it’s done to me.
* * *
This series wouldn’t have happened without the support of my awesome advance readers. Extra shoutout to Beth, Tammy and Michelle for doing an early read! You ladies rock.
* * *
Lori Jackson, Regina Wamba, and Kelley Hawthorne Jefferson, thank you for the perfect cover.
* * *
Becca Mysoor, thank you for your on-point advice. Cassie Robertson and Devon Burke, thank you for questioning, polishing, and catching all the little things.
* * *
Thank you Dani Sanchez for getting the word out about my stories. And Annette Brignac and Michelle Clay… I would not be able to get these books to the people who matter most without your help.
* * *
Thank you all from the bottom of my heart. The best part of author life is having YOU in it.
* * *
xoxo
