I’m endlessly grateful for my invincible alpha readers—Tabitha and Julie—who gave me crucial first notes on the story and supported and encouraged me while writing it. And to Jenny, who not only acted as an alpha reader but also professionally edited multiple drafts and stayed up into the wee hours checking my commas and googling strange things on my behalf (broken penis aftercare). Thanks to all my alphas for the free therapy and advice and for making me so happy to have such amazing friends!

Last but never least, my unending thanks go to my husband and publishing partner, Joe, who routinely motivates, inspires, and makes me laugh. Thanks for doing everything that stresses me out, making dinner when I’m lost in a scene, being my number one alpha reader, and taking me on bookish excursions, like book signings, to help me believe that “This will be you someday.”

And, thank you, readers, for taking a chance on this indie author!
