Under A Blood Moon (Elemental Enchanters) (35 page)

Huge
thanks to all my readers. Without you, my dream wouldn’t exist.

Music is such a huge part of my life, and I would love to thank all the musicians I listened to
while I wrote this, but the list is way too long.

To Jennifer, the greatest best friend a girl could have.
I hope you know just how much you are appreciated. To Chani for your editorial advice and for saving my documents. To Derrick, Angie, Rachel, and Laura. To Laura Gordon and her amazing job on the cover.

To my mom; my dad; Patrick, Morgan, and Alison. Your unwavering support never ceases to amaze me. I love you all. To my new family. I love your enthusiasm and support.

To Chris. Thank you for listening to me talk about my characters and their stories. You make me laugh every day; you challenge me and encourage me. My heart is yours.
