To Sarah—thank you. Your wise words, your sharp wit, your amazing insight and your willingness to read my half-baked drafts have made this book so much better. I’m so sorry I keep failing to deliver you the romance I keep promising.
To Justin—thank you. Your feedback meant so much to me. Really, really, a lot. You have no idea. Even if I left in the dodgy romance lines ;)
Thank you to The Tension Dilemma - http://thetensiondilemma.com/ for the use of some content. For anyone wanting more insight into how to be a better ally to women of colour, read this blog.
To E—for the insights about sex work. Thank you.
To Catherine Deveny—thank you for taking the time to read my draft, meet me to chat and provide such a thoughtful overview. You helped me to see the bigger picture and gave me the courage to not try to fit this story into a box. And, of course, thanks again for Gunnas (and the omelette mix), a truly fabulous class.
Victoria Colotta—thank you for your thoroughness, your thoughtfulness and your honesty.
To Erica Russikoff from Erica’s Editing Services—thank you once again for your exceptional editing and your thoughtful feedback and care with my book.
