Acknowledgments
This section always fills me with such joy. Writing these stories truly is a labor of love and so many people bless my life on a daily basis, inspiring me and encouraging me to put myself out there, challenging me to stretch further with each book, and being my sounding board when I inevitably write myself into a corner. To everyone listed below, and to everyone reading this now…thank you.
Megan Rigdon, words cannot express how much I adore you. Thank you for reading my notes and then multiple versions of each chapter, where I basically change like one or two lines and think it’s monumental (ha!), and sending emails back each and every time with boundless enthusiasm. Your love for these characters helps
me
fall in love with them anew each time I open my inbox and I cannot thank you enough for your feedback, suggestions, and support.
Melissa West and Cindi Madsen…I shudder to think where I would be on this journey without our rapid email chains, text messages, Facebook messages, and tweets. Your listening ears and spot-on advice keep me grounded, your incredible talent keeps me striving to be better, and our nonstop laughs and friendship make each day brighter. I love you both so much.
Staci Murden and Ashley Bodette, I am in awe of your huge hearts and eagle eyes. Thank you for putting up with me each time I “pull a Rachel” and blow up your inboxes (tee hee). You are true friends I am grateful to have met on this wild ride, and I look forward to many more years of laughter.
Huge shout out to my sweet friend Jamie Farrell for the use of her sexy Billy Brenton! Find his story (and a cameo appearance from Tyler and Charlie) in his book MATCHED and in the upcoming SUGARED in Jamie’s fabulous Misfit Brides series.
Suzie Townsend, my goddess agent, I don’t know if you realize how incredibly amazing you are, but I will do my best to remind you of that as often as I can. Thank you for helping me find my confidence again when I thought it was lost. Thank you for your contagious enthusiasm and belief in my projects. Thank you for being a true partner as well as a friend and always going above and beyond. I can’t wait to see what the future holds with you by my side.
Stacy Abrams, editor extraordinaire, thank you for giving me the freedom to explore, to make mistakes and find my way again. I laugh imagining your face every time you open up one of my emails or another draft of a manuscript filled with comments and red ink, but you never get frustrated, you always keep smiling, and it’s because of you that I’ve found my voice. I am forever in your debt, friend.
Rebecca Yarros, thank you for talking me through a few plot holes and opening my eyes to possibilities. Also, thank you for letting me come with you and Lizzie Charles to get your tattoos! Both of you are angels and true friends, women who make the world a better and brighter place, and I am truly blessed to know you. Love you girls!!
To the Flirt Squad, my incredible reader’s group, thank you doesn’t seem to cover it. You ladies are my support, my sanity, my friends, my sounding board, my well of ideas. So many fun moments in this book came from our conversations! I hope I didn’t drive you too crazy posting teasers while we waited for Charlie and Arabella to be published, and I hope the wait was worth it. You girls rock my world. Friends in Book Boyfriends Anonymous, I adore you all! Thank you for all your support and laughter. What a year it’s been!
My bestie, Kim Regitz, teaches me every day what it means to be a true friend. Kim, you’re always there to help me brainstorm a new idea and your support is endless. So much of Arabella’s character was inspired by you, which may be why she has quickly become my favorite heroine. Sharing this life and homeschool journey with you has been incredible, and I’m so excited to now share the author ride with you as well!
My husband inspires every hero I write—in this book, Charlie’s swoony guitar playing and caretaking side came directly from my man. Gregg, your napkin roses may not have made it onto the page but your awesome foot massages did! Thank you for always making me feel adored…I’m truly the luckiest woman in the world.
My beautiful, intelligent, and funny as heck girls, Jordan and Cali, keep me laughing and smiling, and it is because of them that I chased this wonderful dream. Mommy loves you!
And finally, to
you
fabulous reader, and to everyone who loves books….I’m so blessed to be able create and share these stories and it means everything that you enjoy them, too. Whenever I need a smile or get stuck in a plot-hole, I pull up your emails, reread a review, or remember a conversation at a signing, and I’m inspired to dive back in. Readers like you give me the chance to live my dream. I wish I could tackle hug you all but for now know that I love you and am so very, very grateful.
