Rapture Untamed (26 page)
Thanks to all the wonderful and talented people at Avon Books for their effort and support, especially May Chen, Amanda Bergeron, Pamela Spengler-Jaffee, and Wendy Ho. Working with you ladies is a delight. And a special thanks to Thomas Egner and his team for my amazing covers.
As always, thanks to Laurin and Annie, the godmothers to all my books. This journey would be so much more difficult and so much less fun without your keen eyes, incredible instincts, humor, and friendship. Sisters forever!
Thanks to Kim, Emily, and Misono for all your hard work on my behalf.
And a huge, warm thanks to my readers for your incredible enthusiasm, and for falling in love with these dark, dangerous shifters as much as I have. You make the long hours in front of the computer a joy. A
special shout-out to the gang on the pamelapalmer.net BB. You guys rock!
To Keith, my real-life hero, and to my friends and family, my love and deepest gratitude. For everything.
