Acknowledgements

Dan Rix, you will always hold the place of honor in every one of my novels because, simply speaking, they wouldn’t exist without you. Thank you for always encouraging me to write, for our ridiculous discussions on books, for designing my beautiful covers and formatting my manuscripts. But more than anything else, thank you for your unconditional love and unfailing support through thick and thin.

A huge thank you to Sunniva Dee, who edited this novel while juggling the release of not one, but three books of her own. Your comments and edits were, as usual, not only helpful, but also insightful and warmhearted.

To all the writer friends I’ve made along this journey, thank you for the laughs and encouragement. I’m ridiculously lucky to call you all my friends and colleagues.

I’m not sure what the fate of this book would be without the support of some of my most dedicated readers. Your emails, tweets, Facebook and Goodreads messages made me realize that Serenity’s story was one that you wanted to read. Your excitement and your patience truly touched me.

Lastly, this book is dedicated to my mother, one of the strongest women I know. Mom, I hope that one day you’ll truly grasp just how intensely I love you and how much I look up to you. Your life hasn’t always been easy, and there were some times that were downright awful, but you braved on. Thank you for being such a light in my life and for being not just an amazing parent but also my best friend.
