Usually when I give her a cheesy line, I’m given an eye roll and a smack across the chest. But this time? This time I’m given a kiss that I can feel in every cell of my body.
“I love you, Paige. Thank you for saying yes.”
She gives me one more kiss. “I love you, Garrett. Thank you for being everything I could have ever asked for and everything I never knew I needed in my life.”

Acknowledgments
This might be harder to write than the actual book.
First and foremost, I need to thank my family for being the most supportive people on the planet. Mom and Dad, thanks for not charging me rent and also being my biggest cheerleaders. I took a big leap last year, and you both were nothing but supportive. I’ll never be able to tell you how grateful I am.
To Corinne, I’m only here because of you. When I sent in my submission to write in your world, I never in a million-and-one years thought you would pick me. You changed my life forever that day. From the bottom of my heart, thank you for choosing me, for your guidance and your knowledge. I’m still not getting chickens though.
To Crystal, thank you for keeping the Salvation Society moving and for answering all of my ridiculous questions.
To my alpha reader and my best book friend, Kelly. This book literally doesn’t happen without you. Your eye, the way you know my brain, and your suggestions made Paige and Garrett’s story so much better. Here’s to many more books and many more book trips together.
To my editor Elaine York. Thanks for taking a chance on me and plugging all the holes I forgot to fill. To Marla and Michele, thank you both for your detailed eyes and forgiveness for my overuse of common words.
To the staff at Starbucks—especially Bailey and Anthony—for keeping me caffeinated. This book was fueled by our Friday night dates. Also, thank you for making me the Customer of the Week, which turned into Customer of the Two Months due to the world shutting down.
To Liz, thank you for Millie. To Kayla, thanks for answering my medical questions. To James and Olivia for helpful eyes and brainstorming.
And last but not least, I don’t know if the words “thank you” are enough to say to Adriana Locke and Georgia Coffman. You both have been amazing to me during this process. Whether it was to answer a question, listen to me complain about blurb writing or just being a friend who remembers what it was like to be new to this business, I’m so grateful for the two of you. I have this book world to thank for you both of you being in my life.
And thank you again to the readers. Let’s do this again soon.

She is currently working on her Master’s degree in journalism and is set to graduate from her program in 2021. She is a diehard Cleveland sports fan, is the owner of way too many, yet not enough, tumblers and will be a New Kids on the Block fan until the day she dies. She also does her best writing at Starbucks, where you can usually find a Venti Caramel Frappuccino on her table.
