Ryder leans in and kisses my cheek. Then she pulls back and says, “I love you, sweetlips. I’ll never leave your side. You’re stuck with me forever.” 

She grabs a hold of my hand and pulls the door open. Together, my best friend and I walk inside the courtroom. 

I can do this…

First and foremost I want to thank God for all He has brought me through. No matter what happens in my life, He has never failed me. I wouldn’t be here without Him by my side today.

 While writing this particular story, I was taken through a whirlwind of emotions. The ups, the downs, the overall story gutted me entirely. I felt every ounce of pain Brax and Jazz had to deal with. I felt their love, their sadness and their compassion toward one another. It was an overwhelming but remarkable experience as a fiction writer.

To my family, I hope and pray you all know how much you mean to me. Because I am nothing without each and every one of you. You are my world, my life, my everything. Thank you for loving me. Thank you for pushing me and never giving up, even through the bad times. I love you all to the moon and back ♥ JJSJJ ♥

To my Aussie girl! Thank you doesn’t sound like the correct word to express how grateful I am for you. I cannot imagine what you thought of this American chick freaking out every time something went wrong. You’ve had my back, kept me on the right track, and never, not once, let me down. Even when it came down to the last hour, you proofread while I edited over the computer, spending your days helping me. I owe you the world, Leanne, and I can’t thank God enough for having placing you in my life.

Kelly, Tanya and Athena…. Where do I begin? This has been one hell of a ride. You three have believed in me and refused to let me give up every time I wanted to throw in the towel. You’ve witnessed my struggles first hand, and no matter what, you continued pushing me to do my best and encouraged me to keep going. Thank you for everything you do!

To my sista from another mista! Gah…..I cannot say thank you enough, PJ! Your words of encouragement, your inspiration and the way you push me to keep going, I owe you the world. Thank you for believing in me!

Last but not least, to all of the bloggers and readers who have continued following me through this journey. Thank you for supporting me, pimping my teasers and most importantly, for reading my stories. No one this would have been possible without any of you.

Thank you!
