by Cherrie Lynn
   As always, thanks to my husband and fellow Rocky enthusiast, who lets me chase my dreams and listens to all the meltdowns that go with the territory. As a fight fan, he also had some very helpful input on that aspect of this story, but any mistakes are my own.
   And a million thanks to the readers and bloggers who have bought my books, reviewed them, and helped spread the word about them. You’ve stuck by me. You’ve been patient. You are all so wonderful and supportive, and I cannot thank you enough. You’ve changed my life, and I love you all.
   Stay tuned for the next romance in the Larson Brothers series!
   Coming Spring 2017 from SMP Swerve
