Acknowledgements

 

First and foremost, I need to thank all the readers who loved Little Conversations. Writing it simply started out as a way to get the story out of my brain, and you guys loved it and asked for more. The pressure is on. I hope this one doesn’t suck!

Also, thank you to my husband, the love of my life. Yeah, I’m a mushy perv, but you ‘get’ me like nobody else. Thank you for not complaining too much when I sit like a lump on the couch with my laptop for hours on end. Someday, I promise to cook and clean and do all those other ‘wife’ things. In the meantime, you’re very good at helping me work off the pressure of writing a dirty, dirty book.

To my SmutSisters and my pimp, thanks for letting me bounce ideas off you. You inspire me in all kinds of crazy ways and, for some reason, seem to find me entertaining enough to keep around. Love you bitches.

Oh, and, speaking of inspiration…

Henry… mmmm…

Manuel… yum…

To my kids, you better not be reading this. There are some aspects to your mother that it is just best that you never know about.

And finally, to my own parents. You’ve assured me that you will not read my books. And for that I thank you. Kinda the same vein as the kid thing.

 

About Sibylla

 

Sibylla Matilde grew up in the mountain valleys of Southwest Montana, and grew up exploring the alfalfa fields on the back of a horse. She attended a two-room schoolhouse 1st through 6th grade where she had same teacher the whole time. Beginning at about age 12, Sibylla discovered historical romance, feeding off of work of Jude Devereaux, Lisa Kleypas, and Karen Robards. She loves a book that can make the reader run the gamut of emotions, from the sweet glow of new love to gut-wrenching heartache. She always has stories floating around in her head, living in some fantasyland until she writes them down to free them. She is a true romantic, a bit of a Pollyanna, and a deeply emotional soul.

Music is her emotional trigger. Growing up with a Wagnarian-opera-loving mother, Sibylla grew up with music that digs deep into her soul and pulls out emotion. The soundtrack to her life includes different genres and generations. She looooooooves Thirty Seconds to Mars (rather obsessively, actually) with a little Kings of Leon to mix things up, and pimps them out regularly to all her friends through Spotify. She also enjoys watching Met Opera HD broadcasts at her local movie theater, and hopes (listening Met?) to someday see Diana Damrau reprise her role as Mozart’s Queen of the Night in Die Zauberflöte – The Magic Flute.

Sibylla lives with her husband, Mike, a man who she firmly believes saved her from her self-destructive, hot mess self. He makes her laugh every day, even when things seem to be falling apart around them, and has proved to her that love really can heal a shattered soul. In 18 years, they have never had a fight, but argue regularly with their two teenage kids who have, unfortunately, inherited their father’s quick wit (unfortunate as it is a quick wit that Sibylla, herself, definitely does not possess – there is a reason she is a writer and not a stand-up comedian), and live a quiet life with their two weird little rescued Chiweenies. Wait… teenagers and little yap-dogs? Okay, maybe not so quiet.
