  Weeks after I’d been out of the hospital, we got the okay from my new doctor in the new city we lived in for Loretta to tell me the rest of what I still didn’t know about my sister. I thought I’d prepared myself. But nothing could’ve prepared me for what she still had in store for me.

  There’s a difference between whom we love, whom we settle for, and whom we’re meant for.

  Things sizzle when these fighters meet their romantic matches outside the ring.

  If there’s one thing I learned my whole life, time and age are but an illusion.

  “Maybe he was just a friend,” Sarah suggested.

  Angel smiled, shaking his head. “No such thing as guys and girls being just friends.”

  Acknowledgments

  First and foremost, I'd like to thank God for getting through 2016. It was an especially trying year for my family, and we're not out of the woods, but we can at least see the light at the end of the tunnel. Without my faith in the Lord that this, too, would one day be just an unpleasant memory, I don't know how I would've made it through the year.

  With that said, I'd like to thank my readers for your patience and sticking with me even while this has been the longest I've gone since the beginning of my writing career without publishing an ER title. I know you've all been waiting for so long for this one, and I appreciate your patience and love. You, too, are who got me through this past year. I love you and thank you all SO much!

  As always, thank you Mark my “assistant,” my everything. Without your love and support, I KNOW I would've thrown my hands in the air as I felt like doing so many times. Thank you for the optimism when it was SO hard to find. I love you.

  Thanks to my two grown "babies" for continuing to believe and encourage me not to give up on my dream “job,” despite the uncertainties of self-publishing these days.

  I’d like to thank my longtime and loyal bloggers, who after all these years have stuck with me It’s hard to believe I’m going on year seven of this incredible journey! You guys have been a HUGE part of my continued success, and I thank every single one of you from the bottom of my heart!

  I lost a few beta readers this year because life happens. But I'd like to thank my longtime STILL WITH ME beta readers: Emily Lamphear, Theresa Wegand, and last but CERTAINLY not least, Amanda Clark. Hootie, your humor was especially appreciated this year. Thank you, my friend!

  A VERY special thank you to my “critique partner,” JB Salsbury! Your input has been invaluable to me. Not to harp on the year I had, but for so much of it, I felt totally out of it. Like I’d even lost my writing mojo. Your words of wisdom helped to put everything into perspective. It felt like magic after reading your feedback; it was like a light bulb each time. Your very honest and helpful suggestions were PERFECT and I CANNOT thank you enough!

  Thank you to Theresa (Eagle Eyes) Wegand, my one-stop superhero, beta reader/editor/formatter, listener to all my whiny rants/vents and obsessive worrying. This time around they were THICK.=/ As always, your work is impeccable, and I can’t say enough about it. I hope to be working with you for years to come! And thank you for sticking with me, too, even with everything that's changed.

  Thank you to Amanda Simpson of Pixel Mischief Design for my cover art. You’re an amazing talent and awesome to work with. 2017 is looking promising already, and I can hardly wait to see what masterpieces you come up with for me next!

  Shout out to my street team “Team Reyes!” To my admins, Leslie Cary, Jenn DaSilva, Delashawne Acevedo, Sarah Mannering. I'm so happy to have had the pleasure of meeting you finally. Dela, it’s gonna happen, I promise! It’s ridiculous that you live the closest to me, yet you're the only one I haven't met in person! >.< I will make up for that VERY soon. I promise!

  Lastly, gracias a mi “par de consentidas” for making me laugh so much and ALL your love! I’m truly blessed to have readers like you two and all my other royal sisters!
