Would also like to thank the male portion of my family,(Terry, Trent and Brad—I’m looking at you) whose selfless offer to
pose for my covers are always so much appreciated—seriously—I’m really considering it!

Carol Warner,
thank you
for your
generous assistance
. Melissa Grant, Karin, Steve and the FP girls for all their support.

But wait! There’s more!

Kerri Williams—partner in crime, conference room buddy and friend—thank you for all the brainstorming conversations and hours of side-aching laughter we always end up sharing!

And to my Marines
;
Tate, Del, Chase and Tupper—thank you for nagging me into writing your stories—I’ve missed you guys
…
and Tupper—you’re next
,
baby!

Karlene lives on the Mid North Coast of NSW in Australia.

Proud mum to four beautiful children and wife of one very patient mechanic,

she is lucky enough to get to spend her day doing the two things she loves

most—being a mum and writing romantic suspense, fantasy and rural fiction

with a distinct Australian flavour.
