First of all, this book started out as an idea that I have been toying with. And I really hope you all enjoy it as much as I did while writing it.
This book is dedicated to my amazing parents who taught me that I can do anything. And for as long as I can remember, they encouraged me to write and tell my stories. Mama, Daddy, you guys are such an inspiration for me. I love you both with all my heart.
To my baby sister, Alexis, who was the heart of a Caxnea. Your kindness and love is put into Kalliera.
And, finally, to all the readers, dreamers, and believers in the world. This is for you. To the fangirls who stay up late at night, unable to put a book down. This is for you.
