First off, I want to thank each and every one of you who supported this book's journey over the last two years. I'd taken a break from writing Burning Desire a long time ago, and in that time period, I'd ended up letting my passion for the story fizzle out.
For quite some time, I contemplated abandoning the story, thinking that I wouldn't be able to get back into it enough to finish writing it. But so many of you loved the book and begged me to continue it - especially my best friend, Brionna, who will forever be team Jesse - and I realized that I owed it to you all to give an ending to the story you loved so much.
Thank you from the bottom of my heart for being so patient, supportive, and most of all, persistent in bugging me, because had it not been for you, I would not have picked up the book again and fallen in love with the story again in the process.
Thank you all so much for playing such a huge role in the creation of this book, and for laughing, crying, and getting heart-eyed over Kate, Alex, and Jesse's love story along with me.
