ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS
We began work on the first Autumn book in 2008. Seven years later, Autumn’s story is now complete. This would not have been an accomplishable goal if it weren’t for several people.
Our beta readers are always the engine of our train: Adrian, Anna, Ashley, Brian, Connie, Heather, Izza, Jen E, Jen K, Jessica, Joseph, Judy, June, Kristin, Melanie, Michelle, Pat, Poppy, Stephanie, Wendy, and always last but never least, Momma Kirby and Momma Howell.
Kristin Walters was our editor for the entire series. Boy are we happy to have befriended you! “Make it bleed!”
Judy Bogdonove – we’re ready for another lesson on lay and lie.
Raine McNeil – you designed the covers for all three Autumn books, and you didn’t disappoint with the final one. Thank you for creating the imagery readers will associate with Autumn.
A.Z.P. / Beta #0 – when you need a pretty gal to dye her hair red (magenta) and stand thisclose to a dude she’s never met, always call A. Pro.
Brent Wainscott – thank you for turning a potentially awkward photoshoot into a professional and memorable experience. Katie – you’re one lucky gal.
Here’s comes that Scotch, Brian Alexander. Thanks for all the pretty pics.
Thank you to Eric Melton, our astrophysics and aeronautics advisor, and to Dan Howell, our amateur radio advisor. Your geekery inspires us.
Heather Whidden, of “Reflections Of” Photography – our use of the fabulous “peaches & cream” author picture you snapped has been endless! We appreciate your expert photoshop skills!
HRH Bethany Jones, QUEEN of Oxford – Help! We need more French translated! Merci! Merci!
A big "xoxo" to our superfan and superfriend, Connie. Autumn would not be who she turned out to be without the guidance and love of the motherly "Connie."
Our families: Flyboy Eric, Momma and Poppa Howell, the Mookie Monster, Baby Belle Cheese, Mister Brian and Baby Danny Bear, Mum & “the Rev” Kirby, “Little” Buddy R., Famous Aunt Jen, and the Ninja. You knew we could do this before we did.
Finally, we’d like to thank our readers. To those of you who have taken the time to write reviews and reach out to us over the years, we appreciate your efforts to support us! Your encouragement usually came when we needed it most, and your kind words never failed to springboard us back into action. Amy D. – your Amazon review has held the top honors for being the most helpful review for over two years running! You rock! Amber-Rose – your unabashed enthusiasm for Autumn’s story was energizing and helped remind us what it was like to be a teenager. Mallorie M., Robin B., Diane L. – your emails to us came at a time when we were feeling low and unproductive, and your comments have rung in our collective ears ever since, buoying our spirits and resolve to continue writing. Though we’ve never met any of you, you’re our motivation. This book would not have been possible without you.
