The list of people I have to thank is long. I’m grateful to have so many wonderful people in my life.

My CPs and betas who have read and reread, offered advice and unflagging encouragement, and been generally awesome. I would not have survived this without AJ, Cara, Megan, Teresa, Lexi H., and Audra.

My other writer friends who have kept me sane through this whole crazy process (bonus points to Nicole, the blurb queen), my small corner of the Twitterverse, my NECRWA chaptermates, and Romancelandia as a whole. I feel privileged to be a part of a community of such smart, generous, and amazing people.

My family, who has eaten far more takeout than is probably advisable and done without me on evenings and Saturdays so that I could make this happen. Especially my husband, who has been tireless in his support. If there were an award for Spouses of Romance Writers, he’d be a shoo-in.

My real-life friends, who cheered me on from the sidelines, even when they had absolutely no idea what I was talking about: RMW, MTS, AJ, LG, CB, NW, AL.

My editor, Del, who sometimes drove me crazy but in the way that editors get paid for, and my copy editor, Rebecca, who isn’t afraid of the occasional semicolon. Not to mention my enthusiastic proofreader, Michele, and my cover designer, Amber, who deserves a medal for putting up with me.

Tamsen Parker is a stay-at-home mom by day, erotic romance writer by naptime. She lives with her family outside of Boston, where she tweets too much, sleeps too little, and is always in the middle of a book. She should really start drinking coffee. You can find out more about Tamsen at
