Erin, thank you for being the best beta reader one could ask for. I can’t believe it’s been almost three years since I asked you to read TSLD. I’m so very grateful for you (and your knowledge of poultry).
And before I go, I want to squeeze a few words in to say that I hope you love Cameron and Adalyn’s journey as much as I do. This wasn’t an easy book to write for a long (and frankly boring) list of reasons. We all struggle in one way or another. That’s why both Adalyn and Cameron (but especially Adalyn) were handed more than a few messy pieces of myself. I can only hope you see the magic in their imperfections and vulnerabilities and are able to relate to them. Hopefully, you get to find some happiness in them, too—and come scream at me in my DMs. Because writing slow-burn romance about imperfect, stubborn idiots and not being yelled at is, as Joey would say, “like Friday with no two pizzas.”
