I’m just gonna assume that this book was as tough for you to read as it was for me to write.
But this is Keatyn’s story.
Her story of growth.
Her story of becoming the kind of person she wants to be.
I think it’s easy to get so caught up in the romance that we forget just how often Keatyn is forced to act.
Act like she’s normal.
Lie like it’s the truth.
Pretend to hold it all together when it feels like her world is falling apart.
The theme of this book, obviously, was Keatyn learning to love herself.
To be strong. To not need a boy in her life. To do what is right for her. To stand up for herself.
And, hopefully, you can see how much she’s grown in just the few months since we first met her in
Stalk Me
.
And while I can’t release any details of the novella, I can tell you this.
I can’t wait to write it!
Because it’s going to be a fun, happy, romantic, relaxing-on-the-beach book.
All the characters in the series are growing and changing.
And I can promise you this.
Keatyn will get her wish.
At the end of the series, she will be on the beach with her perfect boy. And I know you will all love him as much as she does.
So if you are along for the ride, thank you. Thank you for reading my stories. Thank you for telling your friends about them. Thank you for reviewing them in a way that will not spoil them for others. And thank you, so much, for not uploading them to the internet.
A huge thank you goes out to The Keatyn Chronicles Addicts group. You ladies bring me joy every single day. Just the fact that these characters are stuck in your head and you want to talk about and analyze them is almost hard for me to believe. When I sat down and wrote my first book, that’s all I wanted. For my writing to affect you. It’s so hard for me to believe that less than a year ago the group started with about five people. Thanks to Melissa and Mireya for being amazing moderators and making the group fun and welcoming! And special shout outs to contest winner for the Name the Rivalry and Name Vincent’s film company contests: Nicole for the
Compass Cup,
Pernille for the
Westerfield Cheetahs
and the
Pussy Bowl
, and Melissa for

As usual, thanks to my amazing beta readers, the bloggers who constantly support my books, and all the readers and authors that I have been blessed to meet. Jen, Rebecca, and Molly, you ladies are everything I aspire to be.
And I couldn’t do any of this without my family. Scotty, thanks for somehow knowing the perfect moment to bring me wine. Thank you for not having me committed when I sit at my computer typing and crying. Thank you for not complaining that we eat out all the freaking time. Kenzie, sweetie, I couldn’t function without you and am not sure how I’m going to stand you being away at school. Like Keatyn, you are growing into an amazing young woman and I’m so incredibly proud of you. Connor, the inspiration for Bandit Publishing, you can always make me laugh. I’m going on record as saying that I promise to cook you dinner at least three, uh, maybe twice a week this next year. Like, I’m pretty sure-ish.
