  This was fun, you guys! Maybe we should do it again...like soon?

  Author’s Note

  Writing books is a lovely, frustrating, draining, exhilarating experience for me. After I finished my first book, I was hooked. I’ve crafted stories, both in my head and on paper, since I was a kid. This career is a dream, but it can, at times, be lonely. The opportunity to write this book with Kat came at a time when I was experiencing some personal issues that left me unable to focus on anything else. But then Kat and I started talking about this idea, and our enthusiasm snowballed by the day. We didn’t just love these characters and this story—we felt them deeply. And as I wrote, I escaped my worries for a few hours at a time. I got to experience that incomparable feeling of a new chapter from Kat showing up in my inbox. Co-writing with Kat came to me when I needed it most, and she has become a dear friend in this process. Hard Fall is more than a book to me. When I look back on it, I’ll remember the friendship that started and grew out of it. I’ll remember that when I was feeling lost, this book was there to remind me that I had a place I could go for a little break—the Mavericks world.

  My greatest hope is that Hard Fall can be for readers what it was for me: an escape from real-life stresses and worries, and that after that time away, readers will feel just a little bit recharged and ready to take on the world again. Even if we never meet in real life, having that connection with a reader is a precious gift that I’m forever grateful for.

  Author’s Note

  When I first started publishing my fiction five years ago, I never imagined I’d want to share my characters and ideas with anyone else. The stories we create are so incredibly personal, it’s hard to invite someone into that process. And yet, from our very first phone conversation, Brenda and I found kindred writing spirits in each other. The storyline for Hard Fall grew quickly, and we started putting words on paper within a few days of discussing the project. Having someone to bounce ideas off of, and developing these characters together, made the process both painless and unforgettable. Usually, I’m ecstatic when I finish a book, but I felt an equal amount of sadness with this one because I didn’t want it to end. I hope you, the wonderful readers out there, feel the same way.

  It’s an honor and a privilege knowing you’re out there reading my words, and I appreciate each and every one of you.
