Under Contract (The GEG Series) (36 page)

To the three little amazing people in my life who keep my head spinning and my heart and my mind growing—thank you! It’s an honor and privilege to be your mother. I love you.

Thank you to my family and friends who have supported and encouraged me on this crazy ride.

A huge hug and crazy dance for my street team (The G-Team), especially the room’s frequent flyers: Wendy C., Heather, Leeann, Tammy, Karen S., Christ, Debbie, Jen, Jamee, Jennifer, Anna, Amy, Nicola, Janet, Natalie, Wendy S and Claire!

Crap, I hope I didn’t forget anyone!

I hope you girls always know how much I appreciate your love and support! I cherish you and the friendships we have built! I hope I did you proud with this book!

I have been so blessed to not take this journey alone. Wendy Shatwell and Claire Allmendinger, you both have been my rock. You’ve helped me wipe away tears of frustration and have caused me many tears of laughter! Little did I know, when I signed you on to do my promotions (almost a year ago), that I would gain two of the dearest friends I could’ve ever asked for! What a bonus! I love you ladies! :)

Speaking of friendships, there’s a few authors that I would love to thank for theirs!

Olivia Luck and Courtney Cross, since before the beginning, you both have been there, cheering me on and being the best sounding board whether about book life or real life. Thank you! I love you girls!

Fifi Flowers, sometimes the strangest things happen that end up unifying people into a friendship that may never had blossomed without it. Here’s to strange things, lady! I cherish you!

And finally ...

T.J. Tims—my soul sister, words can’t describe what your friendship means to me. Besides, you’re probably already thinking what I want to say (cuz’ that’s how we roll!). lol. Having you as a friend has been nothing short of a blessing!

Thank you to Jess Huckins, my editor, who has been with me since book one (brave soul). I wouldn’t be able to do this without you. Also, our side notes are epic and should have their own book! I love you and am so happy to add “friend” to your title.

Thank you to Robin Harper at Wicked by Designs for another kickass cover!

Stacey Blake is the lady who magically puts all my words in every book format out there. And yes, I do believe it’s some sort of magic at play here (I wouldn’t have a clue on how to do this!)! Thank you so much for your beautiful work and friendship! I can’t wait to see how pretty you make this one!

And last but not least ...,

I want to thank all of the fans (new and old) and bloggers! Your constant support and excitement adds so much fuel to my fire! I hope you know how much I appreciate it. A special thanks to Rebecca, Annette, Joely, Kaitlin, Lheanne, and Rae for all of the pimping you do for me! It brightens my day to put those three hearts in the comment section! ♥♥♥

I hope that you all will continue on this journey with me!

I am a domestic engineer (born and raised in New Jersey) whose sole responsibility is guiding three young, impressionable kids into becoming phenomenal adults. This challenging yet rewarding work requires a lot of love (coffee), patience (wine), and determination (periodic exorcisms). I work all of this magic from the beautiful state of New Hampshire.

Before becoming a domestic goddess (not really), I spent over a decade working in the medical field, where I wore more hats than the queen.

I have loved the written word and the great escape it provides since I was a little girl. When I wasn't reading about people and the places they lived, I created my own characters and adventures.

Having found myself again, through my writing, with The Lost & Found Series, The One, and The GEG Series, has been nothing short of a dream come true. Also, it makes people feel better when I laugh randomly or talk to myself, knowing it's my characters and not "the voices" . . . that would be creepy.
