First and foremost, I want to thank every reader who has been with me on this crazy journey. You've been here since the beginning with your support, feedback, and fandom and it means the world to me.

Thank you to my beta readers who make my work better. You straighten me out when things get wonky and for that I'm extremely grateful. You all know who you are. Thanks to Louise Bohmer for being a fantastic editor and sticking with me for three books.

I'd like to thank B. "Last Man" Barton for all his valuable input, tactical and strategy advice, and for having the answers to some of my most ridiculous questions.

Espresso machine, your writer juice fueled many a chapter, many a revisions. You made things clear when they seemed foggy. Thank you.

Thank you to my author buddies, for making me feel like I can do this when I feel like I can't. You don't realize how much of a difference your encouragement makes.

When Cyrus got into my head almost seven years ago, I knew he wasn't leaving until I told his story. I'm glad I did, and I'm glad you were all a part of it.
