Fortunately, you readers surprised me and made my heart sing by telling me again and again how much you loved my lottatrice. I am thrilled so many people identified with her myriad of struggles and flaws. My favorite thing to do as a writer is write flawed, tragic characters, so thank you for loving them as much as do. It means the world to me.
Also, I was thrilled to be back with my Italian family in the Lombardi and I cannot wait to bring you Sebastian’s MMF trilogy in 2022!

Fiona and Lauren, we’ve been friends since we were just girls with braces and bad skin and it has been an honor to grow and evolve alongside you both. Thank you for always being supportive, for hyping me up and celebrating my successes even when I forget to.
Armie, you are a constant light in my life and like Dante with Elena, you can always make me laugh even when I’m sad or stressed out. Thank you for being the best friend I always dreamed of.
Albie, you taught me about the beauty of male/female friendship. Thank you for inspiring me to write about found families and how wonderful friendships like ours can be.
To my fur babies, Romeo and Persephone who bring me joy every single day and keep me company during my solitary hours of writing.
As always, I saved the best for last. To my gorgeous man, H, who is better than any hero I could ever write because he’s real and he’s mine. I am grateful every day that I found the love of my life. Thank you for teaching me how to love and for being with me since we were fifteen even when you were not. Io sono con te sempre.
