I find writing acknowledgements harder than writing a four hundred page book. I worry about missing people out, having a brain freeze, and forgetting someone fundamental to my journey. So, this is my disclaimer: I’m eternally sorry if I forget you. It doesn’t mean I don’t love you any less or appreciate everything you do, it’s because I’ve frozen up and my brain has gone on strike.

Now the disclaimer is out of the way, let’s begin:

First, I’d like to thank my husband because without his constant support and endless patience I wouldn’t be able to write as much as I do. He’s there to discuss plot holes, listen to me rant and rave, hold my hand with bad reviews, and cheer me on while I make my dreams come true. Love that man to death.

Second, I’d like to thank the amazing people behind the scenes. Arijana Karcic from Cover it! Designs for all my amazing covers and Kellie Dennis from Book Cover by Design for the original tattooed cover for Destroyed. Love your talent, ladies, and, Ari, I would be lost if we didn’t chat about meaningless things on FB.

Next, I’d like to thank Nadine Colling for doing such an amazing job running my street team. You and Tamara McRae are truly amazing and I love chatting with you ladies. Thank you to all the amazing women in my street team for your incredible support and pimpage. I know I couldn’t do any of this without you.

To all the bloggers and reviewers, I love each and every one of you. I love chatting with you, reading your reviews, and can’t thank you enough for your support. In particular, I’d like to thank Becs Glass from Sinfully Sexy Book Reviews for just being incredible and so lovely, and Milasy from Rock Stars of Romance for being so incredibly supportive of my work and welcoming me onto their website of hugely successful authors.

I’m indebted to Ing Cruz from As the Pages Turn for all her extraordinary help arranging a kick ass blog tour and for putting up with me while I delayed the release of Destroyed to make sure it was perfect. She’s an amazing woman, friend, and I don’t know what I’d do without her.

To Natalie from Love Between The Sheets for putting up with me changing my release day and always being around to answer my questions. To Jenny from Editing for Indies for an amazing proofreading job. I love your work and your awesome feedback. You went above and beyond and I can’t thank you enough.

I want to thank Skye Callahan for being around for our daily chats and putting up with my breakdowns every day while writing this book. Love our sticker wars and aimless chats.

To Chantal Fernando for being so like me and freaking out about the signings we’ve agreed to this year.

To Lyra Parish for our ridiculous conversations about randomness and our joy of insomnia.

To Rachel Brookes for being so sweet, generous, and a massive cheerleader despite having so much else going on in her life.

To Ker Dukey for being strong, awesome, and impassioned about all things writing. Love your talent.

To Kristi Webster for talking me through every plot hole in Destroyed and calming me down when I was ready to self-combust.

To Kristina Amit for being an amazing beta reader. I can’t thank you enough for being so dedicated and loyal. You’re amazing and I value your time so much.

To Helena Reviews for pointing out plot holes with gentleness and such an infectious love of my work. I can’t thank you enough for all your support.

To Ella Fox for becoming a friend and reading Destroyed in a few hours so I could stop biting my nails and freaking out. You really gave me the push I needed to finish.

To all the ladies in the SSIRACG. You’re amazing and I’m so glad I met you all. Your truly are a lifesaver.

And last but definitely not least, I have to thank my beta readers. Destroyed turned out to be the hardest book I’ve ever had to write, and instead of the select few I use to beta read, I had to ask a ton of people for their opinion while rocking in the corner. I owe these ladies every thanks for talking me off the ‘delete button’ and for keeping me going when I wanted to throw this book away. In no particular order:

Astrid Knowles, Vicki Ryan, Sarah Griffen, Celeste Harrington, Katrina Sincek, NJ Frost, and Tamicka Birch. You ladies were a total godsend and I know without your input Destroyed would’ve remained on my hard drive destined never to see the light of a kindle. I owe everything to you and all the amazing beta readers and friends I’ve mentioned above.

I could go on and on but I think I’ll wrap this up and finish with a HUGE thank you to you, the reader. Thank you for your trust in me, your kind words, and amazing encouragement. I hope you enjoyed Destroyed and all my other work coming soon.

To anyone I forgot, you mean the world to me and I’m blowing kisses. I love each and every one of you and thank you from the bottom of my heart. I know it’s cheesy but I honestly could never have done it without the amazing support network offered by you amazing people, and I’ll always appreciate you, more than you know.
