Convincing Constance (The Blow Hole Boys) (23 page)

THANK YOU! Yes, you! If you’re reading this, then you’re awesome. I have the most amazing readers. You guys pick up my books, you read them, and you love them, and that to me is just the most wonderful feeling ever. So to you, the reader, you’re amazing and I appreciate you so much.

Secondly, I want to thank my husband Matthew. He has taught me everything I know about love and romance. He’s my biggest supporter and always has been. Thank you, baby, from the depths of my soul. I love you.

Melissa Burek, we’ve known each other for years, but just this past year we’ve gotten super close. Thank you for coming into my crazy author world and loving it as much as I do. I appreciate you having my back in this. You’re amazing and I thank you.

Melissa Andrea, thanks for always being there when I need to bounce ideas around. My story always disappears until I talk to you. I think my brain likes you. Thanks, chica! Love you!

To Paula Kaesburg, my speed-reader. You always support me and it means the world. Thank you.

Regina Wamba… That is all that needs to be said about the best damn cover designer ever. You’re my girl, G! And I love you all the way to Minnesota.

Cassie McCown, my sweet and wonderful editor, you’re the most patient person alive. Thank you for picking through my garbage and finding the gold that lies beneath. You rock, chick!

To Gloria Elena Gonzalez, thank you for naming my girl band. It was fun reading through all the suggestions, but you nailed it. I love, love, love the name Red Room Sirens. Such an awesome name for a band of girls.

To my street team, you guys are freaking amazing. The support you give me blows my mind and I’m so thankful for each and every one of you. If I could, I’d give you all great big squeezing hugs.

To every blogger/page administrator who has posted or shared anything for me since I’ve started publishing, thank you. I can’t stress enough how much you guys mean to me. You guys supported me from day one and that’s more valuable to me than gold. I send you all bear hugs and love.

To all my friends and family who have been supportive of my writing throughout the years. Thank you. I love you.

And finally to my daughter, Ashlynn, who’s my inspiration for everything I do. You’re my life. I love you more than love, baby girl.
