Acknowledgments
Wow, what a rush (get it?!) I have lived every moment of this story. The anguish and torment, the highs and lows. Eva and the Black Hearted boys will forever hold a special place in my heart. Publishing is a funny thing, and while this series is by no means my bestselling, it is fast becoming a reader favourite. And for that, I thank you.
Andie, Anna, Nina, thank you for being in my corner. Jessica, critique reader extraordinaire – your continued input and has been so valuable, thank you. Ginelle, thank you for always being on hand to proofread for me, despite my chaotic schedule! To Sarah Puckett and Michael Johnson for bringing Eva and Rafe to life in audio – I can’t wait to hear the rest of the series. Kim and Tammy, thanks for being on hand at the drop of a hat to help organise my promo and formatting, you rock ladies!
To my L A Cotton promo team – last year was amazing but this year, let’s rock it (my pun game is strong). Thank you for having my back. My Indie Girls, you know who you are. Thanks for always being there when I need to vent or just chat about what’s working and what isn’t. To my readers / spoiler groups – your enthusiasm and support for my characters and stories makes it all worthwhile. And finally, to the bloggers, reviewers, and bookstagrammer who continue to support me – I see you, and I’m grateful. So grateful.

In her spare time (and when she’s not camped out in front of the laptop) you’ll most likely find L A immersed in a book, escaping the chaos that is life.
