Playing Hard to Master (23 page)

ACKNOWLEDGM
ENTS

Thanks again to our agent, Nicole Resciniti, from the Seymour Agency, for all of your attention and patience. We couldn’t ask for better representation or career advice. You’ve also seriously impressed us with your willingness to be seen with us in public.

Also, thanks to Kristine Swartz, our editor at Penguin, for your direction and always being available to answer our questions, as well as for patiently guiding us through the process.

Of course, we wouldn’t get far without our street team, the Badass Brats. You ladies (and man) are the best friends and supporters authors could ask for. We love you all!

Special thanks to our bff and fellow author, Cari Silverwood, for your ongoing support and quirky humor. No one else can use personal insults to show their affection quite like you can.

We had the pleasure of meeting author Sidney Bristol at a convention this year. Sidney, thank you so much for the cover quote! Can’t wait to hang out with you again soon. (Sidney really is as awesome as she seems online, people.)

And finally, thanks to our partners and families for being supportive about our hours and deadlines, and never complaining when it was pizza for supper again.

Look for the third novel in the Masters Unleased series
