Her voice cuts into my thoughts, bringing my attention back to her. I press my lips to Ryan’s head, inhaling the second-best thing I’ve ever smelled. “Thank you for giving me this.”
She smiles, closing her eyes and humming softly. My eyes drift from her face to the one who fiercely entered this world with a scream, which rivaled a damn war cry.
I do have everything I want. Everything I never imagined wanting, but now, I’d do anything for.
Dylan Sparks came into my life, grabbed onto me, and rooted herself so deep she practically became a part of my genetic makeup. She challenges me, she pushes every button I have, and she loves me more than I could ever deserve. I vowed to give her my entire life, but I didn’t need to. She took it the moment she fell into my lap.
I’m a better man for knowing her.
A father because of her.
And I have everything I will ever need as long as I have her.
Sweet Jesus! I don’t even know where to begin with these Thank yous. So many people have helped me on this journey. Family, friends, bloggers, authors, readers… the list is endless. But first and foremost, I’m going to start off by thanking my main man. The man I fell in love with when I was eighteen years old. The man I married a year later. And the one who will always be my favorite person in the entire world. I love you hard, Mr. Daniels, and I always will.
My beautiful bloggers!!! Oh, I just want to squeeze every single one of you. My girls over at Give Me Books, thank you so much for all you have done for me. Kylie McDermott, I’m tackling you in Vegas. You’ve been warned. Thank you to A Book Whore’s Obsession, BestSellers & BestStellars, Dirty Girl Romance, Romance Room, Blushing Reader Michelle, and all the other blogs I know I’m forgetting for helping me reach more readers.
To my lovely betas! Beth Cranford, Erin Thompson, Lisa Jayne and Heather Peiffer. You girls rock! Thank you for reading Sweet Possession when it still had massive typos and strange word usages. You made it better. You make me better. And I heart all four of you.
And, lastly, to my readers. Thank you all so much for waiting for this story. Reese and Dylan will always be my favorite couple, and it makes me so happy to see your enthusiasm over them, not to mention all the Juls, Ian, Joey, Billy, and Brooke love. You all have embraced them and me, and I can’t thank you enough for that. Goddamn it, Billy.
Thank you all again,
J
