J. Salsbury - Fighting to Forgive

Nicola “Nic” Layouni, one of the most honest and honorable people I’ve ever known. Your insight and wisdom are invaluable and I’m proud to call you my friend. I’ll always be your Petal.

Claudia “Dia” Handel, thank you for your humor. No one can wrap “constructive criticism” in hilarity quite like you. I owe you huge for bringing a very important issue with Blake’s book to light. I look forward to buying you drinks and laughing until our stomachs hurt.

Racquel “Rocky” Reck, thank you for always being available for online brainstorming. Sharing a muse as well as our taste in music, your friendship is a treasure and your eyes on this story have been invaluable.

Kaci “KC” Presnell, thank you for the inside scoop on Seattle. You’ve been so dedicated to both Blake and Jonah’s books, and I’ve yet to return the favor. I’m grateful for your time and your friendship.

Melisa “Hamgasm” Hamling, thank you for burning through Blake’s chapters and never holding back your reactions…even when you’re screaming at me. I love every bit of you!

Amy “Aimes” Anhalt, thank you for working on Blake’s story and for sharing your story with me. You have an amazing gift and I look forward to reading more of your work.

Victoria “V” Van Tiem, your writing is pure magic. Thank you for sharing what you do with me.

To my betas, Sharon “Shex” Cermak and Theresa Wegand. Thank you for your x-ray eyes and your time.

Thank you from the depths of my soul to Red Adept Publishing for swooping in and saving me with their editorial consulting. I’m forever in your debt.

Thank you to the gorgeous and talented Amanda Simpson of Pixel Mischief. It’s been so much fun working with you on both books. I’m blown away by your talent, insight, and unwavering patience. Thank you for allowing me the honor of being your PITA.

To Bridget Levi and her amazing lighting crew who did the most fantastic photo shoot for my cover.

To Ryan and Sarah Troutt for allowing me the use of their gorgeous bodies and faces to photograph.

Special thanks to Dusty Sample, my partner in stalking crime.

Thank you to all the bloggers who jumped in to participate in the blog tour and who reviewed Fighting for Flight. You are an Indie’s best friend.

Thank you to all the readers I’ve come to know through Facebook. Some of you I’ve met, and some I hope to in the near future. You’ve all become so much more than profile pictures to me, you’ve become friends. Thank you for believing in me and supporting my writing.

This book is for you.
