Instead, a quirky brunette started speaking to me… and she refused to shut up until I’d written 100,000 words. A few months later, NOT YOU IT’S ME came out. And the rest, as they say, is history.
Three books later, the BOSTON LOVE STORIES are international bestsellers. That genuinely blows my mind every time I think about it.
It’s not lost on me, even for a single moment, that I have you to thank for the success of this series. You are the reason I get to spend my days with this crazy cast of characters. You are the reason my life is full of so much laughter and love.
Thank you. Thank you. Thank you.
I could say it a million times; it wouldn’t be enough. It brings me such joy to receive your messages, your videos, your picture collages. It means everything to know you share my enthusiasm for these characters, this city, this series.
Chase, Gemma, Nate, Phoebe, Parker, Zoe.
Each of them holds such a special place in my heart. I hope you’ve enjoyed reading their stories as much as I’ve enjoyed writing them.
Huge hugs to the fantastic ladies in my reader group, the Johnson Junkies. Your support and positivity is beyond lovely!
Big thanks to my family and friends for sticking with me — even during the crazy weeks when I retreat into my writing cave.
And, lastly… thanks to all the boys out there who (intentionally or not) provided inspiration for the love between these pages. If you weren’t such idiots, my fictional men wouldn’t be half as appealing.
JUST KIDDING.
