Acknowledgements

Recently my daughter asked me how I felt
about seeing
The King Series
come to an end. I admitted that
there was a little sadness, but mostly satisfaction that the story
has been told. And of course, I have heaps of gratitude to these
characters and this tale, because it launched me into a wonderful
new world and helped me realize my dream.

The original members of A Writer’s Block
always cheered me on, gave me good advice and the best critiques. I
am so excited about the terrific things in store for all of us!

A million trillion thank yous to Christine
Powell Gomez for all of my covers, especially this one. You
captured the essence of this story perfectly. Your patience and
talent know no bounds!

Julie Titus, you are quite possibly the most
selfless person I know. You never blink at any changes I throw at
you, and you work your formatting magic with grace and verve. Thank
you, my friend!

Stacey Blake, did you ever think you would be
learning so many new tricks? Thanks for conquering the formatting
world so that my books can be in wider markets.

Stephanie Nelson, your wraps rock. Thanks for
making my paperbacks so pretty!

To everyone in my PBT family. . .wow. You
blow my mind on a daily basis. We are without doubt the best team
in the book promotion business. Thank you for posting, cheering and
always being willing to help.

Mandie, there are no words. I am forever
grateful to the Powers That Be that brought us together. Thank you
for listening to me, giving me the sagest advice and keeping me on
the straight and narrow. I can’t wait to see your book dreams come
true!

Thank you to my Street Team for jumping in
and spreading the word on
The King Series
. You all surpassed
my wildest expectations. Can’t wait to give you more good stuff to
share!

This last year was not an easy one for my
family, but I was privileged to watch my children roll with the
waves, exhibiting grace and humor under circumstances that might
have overwhelmed people twice their age. I love you all. You make
me laugh and keep me motivated.

My husband never blinks when I’m lost in my
characters’ stories, never fails to rearrange his life to make mine
possible and never lets me stay in crappy motels (possible because
he’s afraid I might run into Sam and Dean there). I love you
forever and always.

To all the fans of
The King Series
. .
.thank you. Every message, email and post telling me that you love
this story, that the characters speak to you, that you can’t wait
for THIS book. . .it humbles me.

Tasmyn and Michael’s story comes to an end in
this book, but stay tuned. We’re not finished with King yet.

About the Author

 

 

“So what happened next?”

I startled out of my reverie. “I’m
sorry?”

Aline Reynolds flipped a hand over
impatiently. “Michael showed up on your doorstep after you waited
days to hear from him. . .after you’d been separated for months.
You stopped right there.
What happened next?

I smiled just a little and closed my eyes,
leaning my head back against the soft chair where I always nestled
in Aline’s office.

“After I held onto him for. . .oh, I don’t
know, about five minutes. . .it felt like I could never let go
again, but finally he asked me if he could come in. So I broke all
the rules my parents gave me about boys being over when they
weren’t at home, and I took him into the living room. I figured
under the circumstance, my mom and dad would understand this
time.

“We sat down on the sofa, and for a few
minutes, we just looked at each other. I didn’t know what to say,
because there was so much inside of me to tell him. I could hear
him, though. . .and it was the best thing ever. I had forgotten how
clearly I could hear him—or maybe I’d blocked that memory on
purpose.”

“What was he thinking?” Aline was pretty good
at keeping me from hearing her thoughts, but she couldn’t hide her
feelings so well. Sometimes when I was telling her the story of
what had happened last spring, she seemed more like an audience
than a therapist.
