Ruined (32 page)
If you have already read Besieged, Conquered and Surrendered, thank you so much for sticking with me and supporting me throughout this crazy journey.
If this is the first of my books that you’ve read, then thank you so much for taking a chance on me. Hugo is a pretty full on introduction to my work!
I could not do this without you, and nor would I want to. You make what I do worthwhile.
I look forward to bringing you new stories in the future.
ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS
So many people have helped me out and supported me with my books over the last year.
I have to give a huge, huge shout out to the lovely SM Piper, my cover designer. Thank you for not only this cover, but all of my amazing covers. I know I like to test your Photoshop skills to the max. You are extremely patient, and you know I love you dearly.
While I’m talking about the cover, I also have to thank Uncovered models and Garrick Murdie for that amazing cover shot.
Thank you to Ellen from The Book Bellas. Ellen is an amazing blogger, and is also my editor. You are the best editor a girl could want, and a truly amazing person. Thank you so much for all that you do.
Leigh Stone. You have proven to be worth your weight in gold girl, what with formatting and website design, and generally just being awesome and helpful. I love you chick.
Miss Stevie J. Cole, my American boo, my co-author and my would be lesbian lover…What would I do without you? I love put four hour long video calls where I cry about my current WIP. Haha! I can’t wait to come and see you.
Thank you so much to all the ladies on my street team. You campaign endlessly to put my books in the public eye. I love all of you, but I need to say special thanks to Anne, Mary, Sarah, Devlynn and Joanna. You all bring something different to the table. You tell it how it is. You support me always. I would be lost without you girls.
There are many blogs who have helped me along the way, and you are all hugely appreciated, believe me. There are a few who are very special though.
Give Me Books and One-Click Addicts. What can I say? I emailed Kylie one day asking if she would do a release Blitz for Conquered. Now, three books later, I can honestly say I could not do this without her. The girls who run both blogs are amazing. Devlynn and Missy in particular are just awesome. I love all of you girls so much, and I’m so happy I became friends with you all.
Sizzling pages. The girls of Sizzling Pages are just awesome. Cariad and Ang are some of the most lovely and supportive people I’ve ever come across. Keep up the good work ladies.
Luscious Literature. Anne and Linda, you ladies are great. Anne, I can’t thank you enough for running my street team, and just generally giving it to me straight when I need it.
Claire and Tara from Bare Naked Words. I love you girls. Tara was so excited about this book. You’re like my own personal ego boost girl.
The Romance Vault. Rob and Michelle, you are some of the most hilarious bloggers I know. I love your very honest reviews, and your relationship with each other.
I hope I haven’t missed anyone out. Just know that anyone who has ever written a review, posted a teaser or picked up my books and read them…Thank you. Your ongoing support means the world
