I usually write long acknowledgments because, as it turns out, it takes a giant collective of creative smarties to craft my books. See that sentence? I guarantee someone is going to have to fix it. And all the ones after it. But this time around, I’m going to simply say that without your help (“your” referring to Boss Agent Extraordinaire Ro, Editor Genius Mel, Team Awesomeness at Random House, Mom of Love, Husband of Devotion, Baby of Mind-Blowing Everythingness, Family/Chosen Family and Friends of My Heart, Brilliant CPs and Writer Buds, FAMB Lovelies and Readers), I would be a complete and utter mess.

You all bring a level of joy to my life that is just plain giggly. You cheer me on, uplift me, and you make my writing and my world shine. There will never be enough words or exclamation points to describe the gratitude I feel when I wake up in the morning and realize that I get to do something I love, with people I love. So please accept this babble as a small token of the enormous, indescribable feels I get from knowing you all are there. Thank you. THANK YOU.
