Acknowledgements

I know that the “acknowledgements” sections at the end of novels start to sound the same after a while, but it is true that this book would have never come to fruition without help from those around me. My greatest thanks go to my husband, Adam, who was there for all of the ups and downs that went into creating Death Wish. Thank you, Adam, for being my sounding board, giving me feedback on every aspect of the story, and helping me figure out how the heck I could take this story’s premise and turn it into a full story.
Second, I am so grateful to my mother Lynnette and my brother Ian, who proof-read the horribly rough second draft of this book and gave me some amazing feedback. This book is so radically different from what it started out as, and I know for a fact that it wouldn’t be what it is today without their help.
Third, thank you to the fantastic and supportive people in my friends and family who kept telling me over and over how excited they were to read this book. I hope it lives up to your expectations, my lovelies!
And finally, thank you, dear reader, for giving this book a shot. Whether you bought it, borrowed it, or stumbled across it another way, I am so grateful that you took the time to read the words this silly lady decided to put on paper. You are all lovely!
Thank you from the bottom of my heart to everyone involved in the creation of Death Wish, and I’ll see you again in Thanatos! Keep staying amazing, you flawless babes!
