Calendar Girl 12 - December Read online

  To my husband, Eric, for surviving a full year of my writing this serial. There is no shoulder more comfortable or more available than yours. You are the only man I want to spend every day of my life with. I will forever love you more.

  To my editor, Ekatarina Sayanova with Red Quill Editing, LLC…I wish I’d met you at the beginning of my journey in this writing world. Then again, perhaps not, because experiencing a variety of edits has taught me what I love and how special you are. You make me excited to read every edit when I used to want to curl up in a ball and die when I’d get edits back. Rebecca Cartee, your knowledge and expertise on bipolar disorder was incredible. Thank you for helping me to express the complexities of the disease in a manner the readers can relate to. (www.redquillediting.net)

  To my extraordinarily talented personal assistant, Heather White (aka PA Goddess), you lift me up when I’m down, provide my misery company, get angry on my behalf if I feel slighted, as well as celebrate every achievement no matter how small. Thank you for locking arms and walking by my side as I fumble through. Love you, girl.

  Any author knows they aren’t worth their weight unless their story is backed by badass betas. I have the best!

  Jeananna Goodall—I love how you see what I write as if the characters are living, breathing entities. Sometimes I wonder if you see them better than I do. They come alive for you in a way that gives me hope for the people who will pick up one of my books. Thank you for being a light in my world.

  Ginelle Blanch—You are honest when others are not. I have been told the same about myself. It’s refreshing to find that in a person. I appreciate all that you are and glory in the gift you give me with each book. Thank you, my friend, for sticking with me through every book I’ve written to date.

  Anita Shofner—You are kind, genuine, and a damn good beta. I’m so grateful to have you at my back. I hope everyone in your world knows the value of you at their back. I sure do and will never forsake it.

  Thank you to the ladies at Give Me Books and Kylie McDermott for spreading this book and the entire Calendar Girl series far and wide into the virtual social world!

  Gotta thank my super awesome, fantabulous publisher, Waterhouse Press. Thank you for being the non-traditional traditional publisher!

  To the Audrey Carlan Street Team of wicked hot Angels, together we change the world. One book at a time. BESOS-4-LIFE, lovely ladies.

  About the Author

  Audrey Carlan lives in the sunny California Valley two hours away from the city, the beach, the mountains and the precious … the vineyards. She has been married to the love of her life for over a decade and has two young children that live up to their title of “Monster Madness” on daily basis. When she’s not writing wickedly hot romances, doing yoga, or sipping wine with her “soul sisters”, three incredibly different and unique voices in her life, she can be found with her nose stuck in book or her Kindle. A hot, smutty, romantic book to be exact!

  Any and all feedback is greatly appreciated and feeds the soul.
