  Acknowledgments

  My Author Tribe: Linny, Iris, Erin — You ladies keep me sane. I swear, even though two of you are worse off than I am. Somehow, through every stressed meltdown or moment of self-doubt, y’all are always here for me. You all know how crazy this industry can be. I consider myself very blessed to have friends like y’all.

  My Beta Bitchaz– It’s been a long time coming, but the day is finally here. Thank you all for reading my quickly written novel and letting me know every single part that you loved and hated. You all help me keep my stories the best that they can be.

  My Bloggers – I feel like I’m going to repeat myself yet again but I’m always so serious when I say this. Without any of you, none of this would be possible. Thank you all so much for every cover reveal, release blitz, ARC review, and promotion that you do. It means the world to me that you continue to support me in whatever path I’m venturing down.

  MY EDITOR, COURTNEY LYNN ROSE – Thank you for jumping in this series during the third book when you’ve never previously read another. I’m sure through edits you were probably wondering what the hell was going on in certain scenes, but nonetheless, we got through it!

  Clarise, My Magical Unicorn – You and I have been sitting on this cover for well over six months. I cannot tell you how happy I am that it’s finally out into the world and this book is completed. I can’t wait for the next one we work on in the Steele Bros series!

  KBB, My Babes! – You all have been so patient with me and for that, I can’t thank you enough. Initially, I had planned to finish this series very quickly but it just didn’t happen that way. Madigan and Reggie stopped speaking to me along with their entire family, so I had to put the Steele Bros on the back burner for quite a while. However, I’m so thrilled that Madigan’s story is finally ready to be told! Thank you all for waiting. I hope it’s everything you’ve ever imagined it would be.

  Dedicated to Cobro

  I’ve tried to write this dedication about ten times already and it’s not quite coming out the way I want. It’s hard to put into words how much your friendship means to me. You’ve been here through the good and the bad. Shoot, you’re one of the few who knows how bad it got. Looking back now it makes me laugh, but I appreciate you standing by me through every super-crappy moment and every life-changing one. I know we don’t get to talk every week, or sometimes even every month, but we always make it count. Thanks for being the little brother I never had and keeping it real for me.

  “I am no victim. The monsters who end up in my sheets were pulled up under my bed by me.”
