Author's note
***IMPORTANT***
Hi everyone,
I wanted to share a little piece of my heart with you. This book means the absolute world to me. I’ve spent nearly two years pouring my soul into writing and refining it, always waiting for that perfect, elusive “right time” to finally share it with the world.
But as we all know, life rarely goes according to plan. Some incredibly unexpected changes happened behind the scenes, throwing a wrench into those publishing plans and leaving me completely uncertain about when or if this book would ever see a traditional release.
For a while, I didn’t know what to do. But then I realized, I didn’t write this story just to let it sit hidden away on my laptop. I wrote it to be read. So, I decided to share it right here with all of you for free. Honestly, there is no greater silver lining than getting to share this journey with my beloved readers. By putting it out there like this, I get to connect with you sooner, and your feedback will help me see where I can grow and learn from my mistakes. Thank you for being here, and I truly hope you enjoy reading it as much as I loved writing it.
