Dedication
It takes a lot of love and patience for the kind of support I've gotten from my family. Sometimes it even seemed an impossible task, but it didn't matter. They knew what my heart's desire wanted. From the first to the last, I hope they know each and every book will be lifted up to them in thanks for all of the ups and downs they traveled with me. To my friends whom I love very much, I owe a lot of my courage, to them. There were times when I wanted nothing more than to quit. But they wouldn't let me. Just to name a few...Melissa, Lisa, Pennie, Nikki and so many more. To me, friendship is something you don't aquire, but instead, it's something you're blessed with.
I'd like to say a thanks to one person who I won't name, but he knows who he is. In the midst of so much change, I found you again. I never forgot you...My heart never forgot you. And now, here I am doing all I can to write and letting readers know who I am. Also, here you are. Sometimes the best things in life are worth waiting for. I waited for a long time, but the price was well worth it in the end. Thanks for supporting my dream.
To my son Cody. To be honest, he was there when no one else was. He and I have always had a bond and now, as he's almost grown, sometimes I want to sit and cry because the years went too quickly. Then I look at the fine young man he's become and suddenly instead of being sad, I'm proud. He helped me smile when I didn't know I had a smile inside of me. Since the day he was born, he's been one of my best friends. Thank you son for being the kind of person I want to be. Your kind and giving nature is a blessing to all who know you. I dedicate all I do, to you. You were my everything the day you were born and as I stand here today, sixteen years later, you remain the center of my life. Be proud of yourself because I'm proud to have you as my son.
To my readers, the ones who have kept on after me to never give up. That meant more than you know. Still I have people e-mail me asking when is my next book coming out. It lifts my spirits and puts a smile on my face. Keep reading and don't give up on the fact that one day I'll make it along with all of the big Authors out there. You have faith in me, therefore, I have to.
Lastly, but most importantly, I'd like to thank God for giving me the gift of knowing how to put words together to make sweet and inspiring stories. Without him, those words would be empty and without purpose, but as it stands, he dwells in everything I write...
I DEDICATE EACH NOVEL TO ALL OF YOU...From My "Heart"
