It’s been a long road. I feel like I’ve been writing a book nearly as long as I’ve been reading books, ha! But I’ve finally made it by the grace of God. There have been tons of people who have been instrumental in the genesis of this finally coming to fruition, so to all of you who have listened to me lament about this book, I thank you. Your never-ending patience will not go unrewarded. And now for some special shoutouts…

 

Mama
: Thank you for support & an unwavering faith in your lastborn.

 

Daddy
: Thank you for an undying pledge to ensure that I doggedly pursue my heart’s desires at all costs.

 

Ajua
: Nineteen, my Leo sister. Thank you for being consistent with check-ins & reminding me of our brilliance.

 

Ashley
: You’ll never know how the words “So. I love your story.” filled my heart with so much glee. Thank you for being an awesome beta reader & friend.

 

Christina
:  This book wouldn’t be here without you, full stop. I’m eternally grateful for your friendship & at a complete loss with where to even begin to repay you for the incredible amounts of patience, kindness & advice you’ve bestowed upon me. #HeadJonesie4Life

 

Dom
: Forever grateful for your friendship, patience, candidness, and feedback. [insert Mary gif here]

 

Kayla
:  Your undying support of my all of writing has never gone unnoticed & I cannot begin to tell you how much it means to me. Remember I told you whenever I finally finished a book; you’d be in my acknowledgements. See, I wasn’t lying!

 

Sarah
: Thank you for keeping me on task & delivering a swift kick to my ass every time I tried to quit & just being an all around dope ass friend.

 

Tahmeka
: A few years ago you started a writing group & were it not for that group; this book would still be a figment floating in the ether of my imagination. Thank you for being the catalyst, my friend!

 

Tawanda
: The bio assist was clutch. You the real MVP.

 

Trina
: My sis, my ace…thank you for caring about these crazy folks from my brain and asking intermittently what the hell ever happened with them. Hope I managed to keep your attention, ha!

 

And finally to the readers, I hope you enjoyed reading this one and will keep rockin’ with ya girl as I keep on keepin’ on.
