First and foremost, I like to thank my family and friends for their encouragement and unfailing support. Thank you to my amazing cover artist Nikos for his patience and ability to know what I want before I do. Thank you to my friends in my writing group, Prolific Pens, for your support and for helping to keep my creative batteries charged. Thank you to my editor, Kelly, and my wonderful beta readers: Anne Marie, Teresa, Rachel and Melissa. A special thanks to two amazing authors: Melissa Haag and Ednah Walters for their advice and guidance and most importantly, their friendship. And last but not least, thanks to my brother, Alex, for being a surly old dragon and providing some a little extra character for this story.
