First of all, I’d like to thank the person who has changed my life significantly since we met, a little over four years ago. Troy, you mean more to me than you know. Hope I did your name justice. And thanks for your advice on all things automotive.
Second, my amazing mentor, Ann. Thanks for showing me the ropes and sharing your passion for writing.
I probably also should thank the people that helped get this book out to the world: my personal cheerleaders, Caiti and Mel. You two have gone beyond the call of duty, and for that, I am very, very grateful. Also, Kiera, I know you’ve always got my back. And I got yours, Bestie. No amount of cupcakes or chocolate can express how blessed I feel to have you three in my life.
A special thank-you to Mum, for igniting my literary obsession long ago. And as always, your advice and input is appreciated. Love you.
Thanks to the talented musicians who inspire me — in particular, Justin from Blue October. This book may not have existed if I hadn’t discovered your song My Never. There are emotions in this story that were born from Blue October songs.
And, last of all, my goddaughter, Cleo. Your smiles and giggles always cheer me up. Thanks for being so damn gorgeous.
