And I will continue to love you, and work at loving you the best way I can, with everything I have, for the rest of my life. I swear. Someday, he’ll let me tell him so, and when he does, I’ll hand him that ring, and I’ll be so certain that he’ll say yes. A million times yes.
Acknowledgments
Thank you to Eileen and the rest of the SMP Swerve team: it has been a pleasure working with you. And a particular shout-out to Jaime, because if you make your CE laugh, you know you’ve done something right.
So much gratitude to my agent, Courtney Miller-Callihan. You shepherd this series from an email to reality and helped keep me sane in the process.
Also thanks to AJ and Emma for helping my slalom boys shine.
To my friends MTS, LG, EH, and KO, who drag me out of my writing cave to go have some fun in the real world.
Thank you to my family, who now know far more about elite winter athletes than they ever wanted to know. I swear, knowing that the gates they use in the slalom are patented will come in handy sometime. Probably in a Trivial Pursuit game in like 2026, but still—you’re welcome.
And, as always, my readers and reviewers; I’m grateful that you’ve spent your time and resources on my words. I hope you’re excited about the Snow and Ice Games series, because I’ve loved writing it, and there are three more books chock-full of sexy athlete shenanigans to come! I couldn’t do this without you.
