Oh my Gosh, you all have no idea how often I’ve written this part of my book so far. After all, for a writer this is probably what the Oscar speech is for an actor. Whom should you thank? Who should be the first person you mention?

For me this part is easy. The first part at least. Because I want to mention my best friend Yvi and thank her for everything she did, and trust me, she did a lot. She is the biggest fan I have and, at the same time, my biggest rock out there. Thank you for all you’ve done, and all you are. (PS: I’m not gonna mention you in the following, but of course, you were part of every step along the way.)

Then I want to thank the people who helped me through the actual writing because sometimes you just need a little kick in the backside. Or some help. Or encouraging words. Those people are Tonya Ridener, Becca Vincenza and Aimie Jennison.

Aimie Jennison is my ‘editor’ in a way and she has no idea how important that was for me. As it is, she is an amazing lady and very patient. Thank you for not minding me stalking you. You are such a great person. Thank you!

Next up is Misses Airicka Phoenix, who did the cover for me. I am in love. Like seriously. This is the best thing ever and I cannot wait to have that pretty paperback in my hands. Thank you for showing me what I should know about a cover.

Then my ARC-readers, Staci, Rosslynn, Aimie again, Sarah (damn, girl, you were the scariest of my readers!) and of course Yvi. I am glad you loved my boys. And thank you for being the people who HAD to tell me how you liked it. As well, Betsy Dillon, who became a friend simply because she needed someone to read
her
ARC. Boy, am I glad I started to read your book, girl, because that got us talking.

Then, my aunt, who won’t be reading those acknowledgements because her English is not nearly good enough. (Damn shame, now I need to release the book in German, too. *wink*) She got excited when I needed it and she truly helps me where she can.

There are two more girls I want to thank simply for being there and listening to me whine, saying the right words when I needed them and sharing eye-candy (and not so candy stuff) whenever. Thank you, Hils and EmJay. You know, your stories are up next! ;-)

Last, but not least, thank YOU for reading this book. I sure hope you enjoyed meeting the guys. They were anxious to meet you!

 

Sam

About The Author

 

Once upon a time there was a young girl with her head full of dreams and her heart full of stories. Her parents, though not a unit, always supported her and told her more stories, encouraging her to become what she wanted to be. The problem was, young Sam didn't know what she wanted to be, so after getting her A-levels she started studying Computer Science and Media. After not even one year she realized it wasn't what her heart wanted, and so she stopped, staying home and trying to find her purpose in life. Through some detours she landed an internship and eventually an apprenticeship in a company that sells cell phones. Not a dreamy career, but hey. Today she's doing an accounting job from nine-to-five, which mainly consists of daydreaming and scribbling notes wherever she can.

All through that time little Sam never once lost the stories in her heart, writing a few little of them here and there, writing for and with her best friend, who always told her to take that last step.

Only when a certain twin-couple entered her mind, bothering her with ideas and talking to her nonstop did she start to write down their story - getting as far as thinking she could finish it. Through the help of some author friends, and the encouragement of earlier mentioned best friend, little Sam, now not so little anymore and in her twenty-seventh year,  decided to try her luck as an Indie author. She finished the story of the first twin, Jaden, and realized she couldn't ever stop.

So, it really is only after five that the real Sam comes out. The one that hungers for love, romance, some blood, a good story, and, at the end of the day, a nice hot cup of Chai Tea Latte.

And if the boys are still talking to her, she'll write happily ever after
