Undescribable (63 page)
First of all, I want to thank my editor, Jennifer Roberts-Hall. There’s nothing she won’t do. From the start, she has been guiding me down the road of self-publishing, introducing me to some wonderful ladies, and answering the million questions I have had. I’m pretty sure I have messaged her on a daily basis over the last six months, and she has calmed me down when I had a few freak outs. She has spent countless hours and numerous night on Skype, helping me polish my book for all of my readers for which I am truly grateful. I love you and your awesome-sauce. J
I want to thank, Sarah Hansen and Okay Creations, for the beautiful book cover that she designed for me. I am in love with it and can’t wait to see what she has in mind for book two.
Thank you to Julie at JT Formatting for working so fast when I was clearly behind.
I want to thank the wonderful and talented artist, Violet Kirk, for making me a gorgeous painting of my cover, for me to display on my wall. She is amazingly talented with paint and a brush.
One of the lovely ladies that I have had the pleasure to meet is, Casey at Hardcover Therapy. She set up my cover reveal and Blog Tour for
Undescribable
. I don’t know what I would have done without her. She helped me get the word out about my book and had over fifty bloggers signed up, just for my cover reveal. The woman is an exceptional blogger and took time out of her day to help support me.
Thanks to Shaina at Candy Coated Book Blog for putting together my release event.
So many blogs were involved in helping me get the word out! Just Booked, The Book Whore-der’s Delights, Sex and the Books Blog, Sarah’s Book Blog, and many more. Thanks to each and every one of you.
I want to thank Laura Hidalgo at Bookfabulous Designs for my beautiful website and her wonderful swag.
Big thanks to Cassie at Cassie’s Crafty Creations for the beautiful key chains she made for me, and Sarah at Strictly Creations for all of the quote pic/teasers she made me. Jolinda Bevins for all the beautiful swag that she makes. Thanks, ladies, for the beautiful things you can create.
I have met some amazing authors, such as; Erika Ashby, Ashley Wilcox, Sarah Dosher, Ada Slowe, Brooke Cumberland, along with many others. They have not only given me advice, but they have also become great friends. Thank you for answering all my questions, no matter how stupid they were, and for just wanting to visit on any given day.
Thank you to my beta readers: Amy Burt, Angela Mclaurin, Brett Burrow, Deana Wolstenholme, and Wendy Neumann Wilken. They all took time out of their busy lives to read over my story and give me their honest feedback. I value their opinion and thank them for their support and loving comments.
I want to thank my awesome street team, Shantel's Erotic Entourage. I love these bitches! This lovely group of ladies are awesome at pimping and making me laugh. They make me smile on bad days and make me laugh every day with booty dances, foul language and dirty minds. It’s amazing how you can become so close with someone when they live halfway around the world. These girls are my sisters, and I love them very much.
My aunt Shari (who I sent hundreds of emails to!) for reading and giving me her opinion.
My cousin, Savannah. I would call her, freaking out when I couldn’t figure out how to work my computer properly. The girl is a computer genius!
My grandma, who informed me my book had too much sex. I told her that I don’t think any book could have too much sex, lol!
My mom and stepdad who always supported me, and helped watch our daughter so I could get through edits as I stayed up night and day to finish the book.
I also want to thank all my family members who are no longer with us. We love and miss you.
To everyone else in the family who has spread the word about my book and shared my author page; I’m very lucky to have such a supportive family. I love them all.
And last but not least, my readers. Thank you for taking a chance and wanting to read
Undescribable
. I can never thank you enough for wanting to read and share Samantha and Slade’s story. I hope that you all love it as much as I do. These characters have become my children. I have cried with them and fought with them on this journey, and I wouldn’t have it any other way.
This book would not be possible without any of you. Thank you!
Shantel is a Texas born girl who now lives in Tulsa, Oklahoma with her high school sweetheart, who is a wonderful, supportive husband and their three year old little princess. She loves to spend time cuddled up on the couch with a good book.
She is currently working on book two in the
Undescribable
series. She considers herself extremely lucky to get to be a stay at home wife and mother. Going to concerts and the movies are just a few of her favorite things to do. She hates coffee, but loves wine. She and her husband are both huge football fans, college and NFL. And she has to feed her high heel addiction by shopping for shoes weekly.
Although she has a passion to write, her family is most important to her. She loves spending evenings at home with her husband and daughter, along with their cat and dog.
