For Seth and Laura

To my wonderful and beautiful readers,

I'm so thankful for every single one of you. Thank you for taking a chance on my books out of the millions to chose from.

 

For all those that have been with me since
ROOM 212,
we have offically come to end of an
era
together. We have laughed, we have cried, yelled and grown together. Thank you for all the support.

To the ones who have just entered my crazy world, from the bottom to the top of my heart, I'm honored and beyond grateful. ❤️

 

We have many exciting and new things to come ;)

 

XO Kate

I have to thank you, the readers and bloggers, for your support. I remember publishing
Room 212
and thinking, “If I can just get one excited GIF, my life would be made.” It was enough for me. Two years later, I still look at that GIF in appreciation. Thank you, Beth! So much has changed, and I’m so incredibly thankful to you for it. With every story I write comes a new book friend, and I couldn’t be happier.

 

I have to thank the ladies who have been with me from the beginning: Sharon Dunn, Anne Morrillo, Stacy Hahn, Juliana Cabrera and Edee Fallon. Thank you. I love you, my amazing friends.

“Kindred spirits are not as scarce as I used to think. It’s splendid to find out there are so many of them in the world.”

Jack

For the last ten years, I've roamed the globe, captivated by the world around me. I've seen the seven wonders and admired sunsets from every continent. I'd lived and loved and that was enough for me. It would have to be.

I was content, satisfied with my collection of experiences . . . until a phone call led me down a road less traveled.

If I'd known my fascination would pique and be forever quenched only a few hundred miles from where my curiosity had been born, I may have never set sail.

Rose

Stripped of the future I'd planned with the love of my life, my family and my career were now all that mattered. I'd lived and loved and that was enough. It would have to be.

I struggled to move forward, to discard the part of me that held out hope for my obliterated heart. But I was bred a romantic, so it was easier said than done.

The chances of being struck by lightning are 1 in 960,000.

The odds of being struck twice are 1 in 9 million.

I risked those odds every minute, often cursing the dark sky, praying for static and a rumble of thunder, but it never came.

No, that second bolt hit me on a clear day.
