Acknowledgments

Thank you so much to Dr. Emily Bemrose for not only letting me pick your brain for veterinary knowledge, but for taking spectacular care of all my fur-babies over the years. You’re the best!

I’m super grateful to Jeff Jensen, owner of The Reptile Zone in Bend, Oregon, for giving me an awesome introduction to the Argentine tegu and other cool critters. If it weren’t for you, I could never speak knowledgeably about reptile penises at cocktail parties.

I’m flattered, honored, and a little bit baffled by the huge volume of readers who’ve contacted me almost daily since the release of
Marine for Hire
, asking when Mac and Kelli’s story would be available. Thank you for your enthusiasm and encouragement. This one’s for you!

Huge thanks to Linda Grimes, Linda Brundage, Cynthia Reese, Larie Borden, Bridget McGinn, and Minta Powelson for all your crazy-fast turnarounds and crazy-insightful critiques (and all-around craziness, of course).

My undying gratitude to the whole Entangled team, especially Heather Howland, for crying over my dirty jokes and laughing at my tender moments. Wait, does that sentence need to be edited?

Big hugs and kisses and thank-yous to Michelle Wolfson of Wolfson Literary Agency for doling out good advice, moral support, and kick-ass agenting in equal measure.

Thank you to my family, Dixie and David Fenske and Aaron and Carlie Fenske, for always being there for me, and for making sure the world is well stocked with Fenskes. Thanks a million to my awesome stepkids, Cedar and Violet, for understanding why you’re not allowed to read my books or friend me on Facebook.

And thank you to Craig for tirelessly coming to my aid when I request assistance in choreographing a sex scene. You’re a real trooper.
