Acknowledgements
To my mother, Alicia Broaddus, an amazingly talented author/illustrator - thank you for inspiring me to follow my dreams. Thank you for supporting me all these years in every way possible and for helping me get past my writer’s block so many times. I can never repay you.
To my father, Tom Broaddus, my knight in shining armor - thank you for the choice you made all those years ago. All men should be as generous, patient, loving, kind, and devoted as you. You make me laugh all the time and you make me proud to call you Daddy.
To my sister, Lauren Metelski, another amazing writer - you are the best mother I know (besides Mom, of course) and I’m so glad that over the last few years we’ve grown closer. I’m so proud to be your big sister, but sometimes I feel like our roles are reversed. Kiss Eleanora, Fiona, Liev and Yury for me.
To my best girlfriend, Danielle, my supportive peacock - I’m so glad I met you at PPLO all those years ago. Thank you for being an avid reader and supporter of my writing. Your advice on my books (and everything else in my crazy life) is invaluable. Time for that girls’ trip!
To my husband, Wes, my best friend and partner - thank you for being patient while I took up the living room with my writing. Thanks for letting me bounce my thoughts of you and for your invaluable ideas. I’ll love Alpacas forever.
To my daughter, Grace, the artist -you are my firstborn baby girl. Know that I am ever so proud of you in
everything
you do. Mommy loves you.
To my daughter, Maddie, my little me - you are beautiful and talented and smart and I know that all of your dreams will come true. Mommy loves you.
To the following friends and family: Jena King, Sonja Thomas, Letitia King, Donna & Mike Morgan, Angie Tijerina, Daffney Banta (KASA Salon), Toni Lynn Smith (Purple Pig Photography), Al Borne (Borne Investigations)…you have all supported me in your own unique ways and I appreciate it more than you know.
In Loving Memory – James Foster King, Isazelle Broaddus and Billy (Billy Pop) Broaddus.
Finally, to anyone and everyone in my life not named above who has supported my writing, especially my Fabulous Facebook Friends and Tremendous Twitter Followers, you have my sincerest thanks.
About the Author
Christina Morgan was raised in suburban Central Kentucky in a family full of right-brainers. With a photographer/artist for a grandfather and an author/illustrator for a mother, she was bound to turn out on the creative side of the spectrum. She honed her writing skills in school, winning awards for her essays and short stories. Christina tried her hand at about every sport imaginable, which only went to prove that her efforts were better spent in other creative outlets such as art, singing, and writing. But it was writing that really stuck with her and she spent the next several years trying her hand at writing fiction novels, just for the fun of it.
She took a break for a while and focused on putting herself through paralegal school while raising two amazing Irish twin girls. She quickly learned that being a certified paralegal was the best career choice she could have made. On top of all of the cool cases she has worked on over the years, she was able to write original legal documents autonomously. When a national magazine for attorneys approached her in 2013 to write a short story for them about the life of a paralegal, she jumped on the chance. When the article was published and garnered her some amazing feedback, she realized how much she missed writing for leisure. She sat down and wrote her very first full-length fiction novel that year and hasn’t stopped writing since.
She loves reading (all genres except sci-fi), folk music, caramel macchiatos, puppies, thunderstorms, antique jewelry, dragonflies, the color purple (not the movie), and enjoys a large sweet tea from McDonald’s every single day.
Christina Morgan lives in Nicholasville, Kentucky with her husband and two teenage daughters, three dogs (one of which is blind and has only three legs), and two cats (one of which is still relatively feral.)
