ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS
To see something you’ve worked so diligently on for over five years come to an end is never easy. The feelings contradict one another—on one side, you’re happy to see your characters get the ending they deserve, but on the other, you’re heartbroken knowing that you’ll never write about them again. This first series of mine will always hold a special place in my heart, and these characters—their struggles, triumphs, and defeats—will stay with me my entire writing career.
First, I’d like to thank God for all of the blessings bestowed upon me. Writing is truly a gift, and I am eternally grateful.
To the team at Damonza, for giving my stories the cover art I could only dream of. These books were brought to life through your artwork and designs, and for that, I am so thankful.
To fellow YouTuber, beta reader, and friend, Vivien Reis. Posting on that Goodreads forum was the best decision I’ve ever made! Thanks for being there to answer my questions and silence my doubt. You’re the best!
To my family: Mom and Paul, Dad and Rachel, Erin, and my Nana and Papa. You guys are my biggest cheerleaders. Your excitement for each book encourages me to write more and better each time I open my laptop. I love you all to the moon and back.
To my fiancé, Jonathon Bills, for listening to me complain about my writerly problems and for taking my crazy in stride. Thank you for showing me that even though two people can experience tremendous hardships, love can and will bring them back together. I love you.
And finally, to my readers, subscribers, and fans, THANK YOU. I hope one day to get to meet each and every one of you in person. We’ve built the best community in the world, and waking up each morning knowing I get to interact with all of you is a dream come true. From the bottom of my heart, thank you, thank you, thank you.
Kristen Martin is the author of The Alpha Drive trilogy: The Alpha Drive, The Order of Omega, and Restitution. An Arizona native, Kristen currently lives in Texas with her fiancé, two rowdy dogs, and skittish cat.
