Acknowledgements

I truly do love my book family and that extends to everyone I have met on this journey from my home country of Australia to my US travels.

Firstly, thank you to the readers who have jumped genres. I severely missed my “dark” world writing Tequila Nights, but I also sincerely enjoyed the change.

A warm hug and kiss to the amazing bloggers who have shared and/or reviewed.

Thank you Jodie O’Brien for encouraging me to take this journey to extend my genre base. Our friendship has blossomed into something so amazing over the last year and I love you dearly. You always have my back and that is a trait so hard to find.

T L Smith. Girl, where would I be without you? No, seriously. Where? You crack me up, always have me covered and save my ass when I’m having a freak out. I love our dark minds and one day we will conquer the world!

Casey Lalkas. My sweet American buddy and beta reader who lives in a beautiful far away land that one day I will move to also. From the moment we met, we clicked and your support has been invaluable.

Kaylene Osborn for being the most gorgeous editor ever! Your patience with me always saves my butt and thank you for kicking me into line when I “rush” through endings.

Emma Fitzgerald for being another amazing woman who rushed in to save me from my own doubts. Love you, lady.

To my TEQUILA buddies I had the fortune of meeting in Melbourne, you ladies Nicole Hartney, Jill MacKenzie, Bozica Brzica and Nerissa Peterson are SERIOUSLY awesome.

Again to my readers. Thank you for following me, or for just joining me. I hope you enjoyed Tequila Nights.

And lastly, to memories. The good, the bad, the ugly and beautiful.

Antagonize Me

This book is a standalone.

I wanted what she had, she had what I wanted. With her long blonde hair and her legs that never ended, she had him, but I wanted him.

We can’t always have what we want, and sometimes that’s the way life is meant to be. Sometimes destiny places other people in our path, a path that should not be mixed. But also sometimes, just sometimes, the paths cross, causing an explosive reaction.

Tanner was my crush. A crush that I’ve had since I first laid eyes on him. But now he’s dating my friend… my beautiful, flawless and perfect friend.

Then out of nowhere, Kyrone bursts into my life, taking me over bit by bit. I don’t know how to feel about that. I don’t know what to do. He frustrates me. He annoys me. But most of all, he makes me smile.

They say dreams are a powerful thing, that our imagination is a powerful thing. And that sometimes all you have to do is dream big, or imagine big, to get what you want. To strive for what you want.

I dream big. My grandfather taught me to do so. The world is my oyster and yada yada. I never believed him, though maybe I should have. Maybe, just maybe, I should have dreamed and imagined bigger for myself. Maybe I could have taken a different path if my dreams were bigger if I imagined bigger.

Though sometimes we have no choice to, sometimes life takes us in the direction it thinks we should have been in. The life that is our path.

I don’t believe my life took the right path, some of it was great and some of it was hard.

I always tried to dream a little, maybe that was my downfall. I dreamed, but I didn’t dream big enough.

Shoot for the stars, he would say to me. Dream as big as the ocean, you can do anything you want, anything. Just imagine you can and your possibilities are endless.

So that’s what I am going to do, dream as big as the ocean, imagine like the sky above. No one can stop me.
