  I hop off the stage and go to my wife. Rinny. She sits in her chair and I lift her off of it so I can hold her. I’ll never let her go. She and Haven were the reasons I was born. I will never take their love for granted again, and we will always and forever be a family.

  ~ The End ~

  Thank you to my family and friends. As always, you’re behind me and my dreams 100%. I could not do any of this without your constant love and support.

  To my husband and favorite collaborator. Thank you for another masterpiece of a cover. Your talent amazes me. We make a great team. I love you more today than yesterday, but well you know the rest. Thank you for pushing me to do better when I thought of deleting every word of this book. Thanks for getting my ass in gear. You’re my heart and soul. Thank you for coming along on this journey with me. It’s been a heck of a ride so far.

  A special shout out to my cousin, Michele, for all of her Long Island knowledge! No one knows it like she does. Thank you, Jou Jou for your beautiful words regarding what life was like in Long Island during 9/11. I love all of our late night texts and laughs when you were helping me with the backdrop of where Mack and Corrine’s story started. I’m so blessed to have you. I love you so much!

  To my PR go-getter, Lydia Blogs @ HEA Bookshelf, thank you for all of your hard work and dedication. I appreciate everything you do for me. There’s no one like you.

  Thank you to my sweetheart of an editor, Kathy Krick. Thank you for your hard work.

  A huge thank you to Holly Malgieri, my angel of mercy, my savior. I CANNOT thank you enough for making this book shine. If people think authors work hard—you have no idea what editors and proofreaders do. They make us look good! Thank you Holly for what you have done for me. You are the true talent and I’m so honored to have worked on this book with you.

  Thank you to Christine Borgford at Perfectly Publishable for your beautiful work on Leap! I am in awe of your talents!

  Readers and bloggers—thank you so much for your support and love and excitement. My words are for you. I appreciate you all so much. Thank you for bloggers for inviting me to signings, and to the readers, thank you for coming to the signings. Thanks for taking the time to stop by my table to talk with me, take pictures, and for putting the biggest smile on my face. Meeting readers is my favorite part of this job.

  Thank you to the following inspirations while I wrote Leap:

  Adele, Tori Kelly, The Script, TLC, P!nk, Paramore, Linkin Park, Leonardo DiCaprio, beards, cannoli’s, Cadbury eggs, Starbucks French Roast coffee, Howard Stern, alcohol, and Bath & Body Works for your calming bath care essentials.

  For the families of the fallen victims of 9/11, God bless every one of you. May you one day find peace.
