It wasn’t a blessing, strictly speaking, but it was as good as a declaration that her mother would try. Really, that was all anyone could ask for. Hope looked at Daniel, her heartbeat picking up at being so close to him, just like it always did. “I love you.”
“I know.” He leaned down, stopping just short of actually kissing her. “I love you, too, darling.”

Acknowledgments
To God. It’s been quite the journey and this year has been more challenging than I could have imagined, but it’s all worth it. Thank you.
To Heather Howland. Thank you so much for helping me finagle this series and up my game with Daniel and Hope. Their book wouldn’t be what it is without your input.
To Kari Olson. Thank you for pointing me in the direction of Tyler Farr’s album, Suffer in Peace. That served as a soundtrack for this book! You know how I adore broken men and their breakup songs!
To the Rabble. Thank you time and time again for your endless support and enthusiasm. You’re often the first eyes that see snippets of my books, and your responses never fail to make my day!
To Piper Drake. You’ve been my sounding board and the person talking me off the ledge for ages now. The last few years wouldn’t have been the same without your presence in my life, and I am so damn grateful for you! You’re a rockstar!
To Tim. I’m writing this as we’re approaching our three year anniversary. I don’t know that anyone has gone through quite as much in such a relatively short period of time. Thank you for being my rock in the storm—and for sometimes being the storm to shove me out of my head. I love you like whoa. Here’s to you, babe.
