Claiming Grace (Ace Security Book 1)

  “They’ll never know. Cross my heart,” Alexis swore, using her finger to draw an imaginary X across her chest.

  Acknowledgments

  Thank you to Maria Gomez at Montlake for your encouragement and belief in me . . . even before you read a word of my story. I appreciate your support and am thrilled for the opportunity to take this journey.

  Another huge thank-you to all my readers. Seriously, I couldn’t write nearly as many stories without your support. Thank you for letting me write damsel-in-distress stories . . . my way.

  And I would be remiss if I didn’t give a shout-out to my family. From my dad, who had my very first story hardback bound years before I thought I’d give this whole “author thing” a try, to my mom, who buys all my books . . . even if she can’t stand the hero and thinks he’s a male chauvinist pig, and of course, to Mr. Stoker-without his support I couldn’t do any of this. Thank you.
