The Game Changer

“Well, kiddo, we’re here,” my dad says.
“Yep, I’m excited. This is going to be great,” I reply, squeezing his hand to reassure him that everything will be okay.
I watch the runway come into view as the plane touches down, trying hard to stop the tear that escapes my eye; I quickly wipe it away, not wanting to worry my dad. I need to start over and forget about Luke.
He broke his promise. He said he would never hurt me, he said he would never leave. Against my better judgment, he made me believe in forever again... until now.

Thank you to my family, especially my husband who always does whatever he can to make sure that I have time to myself so that I can hide out in my room and continue to write. You constantly keep our whole family laughing and happy. And to my two STARS, Nicky and Anthony. Nicky: You inspire me to follow our dreams and you push me every day. You’ll always be the biggest STAR in NYC to me. And Anthony: My little STAR, my go-to guy, who sits beside me every night, offering his two cents. You’ll always be my favorite MVP, there is nothing more exciting than watching you play. You both are my heart.
To Kris and Alizon, my editors. You are the best. I can’t thank you enough. I feel as if I’ve known you forever. (My sister is jealous, lol) I am so thankful for your suggestions, comments and advice, but most of all for your encouragement. I could never have done this without your help and I am so, so grateful. I can’t thank you enough.
To Melody Simmons, my cover designer. I gave you two short descriptive sentences, and you came up with the perfect cover. Thank you.
