He smiled against her mouth. “Semantics.”

This book has been a long time coming. That Marked by Moonlight has found its way into the hands of readers is due to the support of many. Sincere thanks go out to the following people:

Tera, Leslie, and Ane, you were there for me at the very beginning. Thank you for patiently reading and rereading every page and listening to all my plot woes.

Robin T. Popp, who assured me this manuscript was destined for publication—your support was the encouragement I needed to push myself through the hard spells.

Sandra K. Moore, whose full manuscript critique sent me into a weeklong migraine—thank you! Without your input, who knows when the lightbulb would have gone off?

My husband, for understanding when deadlines arose and the laundry baskets piled—I love you.

My agent, Maura Kye-Casella, for singling out this manuscript from her slush pile, sinking her teeth into it, and, in true lycan form, never unlocking her jaws—thank you doesn’t begin to cover it.

And to my editor, Lauren McKenna, whose guidance and insight helped bring this manuscript the final stretch home—you rock!
