  Awesomesauce (adj.): A way to describe something that is beyond awesome with a dash of excitement. Typically said by women.

  Name-ism (n): Typically two common turns-of-phrase that were mashed together to create a new, more pungent meaning.

  Babylon (n): A township on Long Island where Avery grew up. There are million-dollar homes on the waterfront to tiny Cape Cod houses.

  Cleavagefest (adv): When a woman’s breasts are thrust up and smashed together so tightly that it infers a sexy party may be imminent.

  You GOTTA Know This Before You Read!

  Read me, babe!

  Thank you to everyone who supported this project! Before you start, a quick heads-up.

  THIS SERIES IS FAN-DRIVEN. So I’ll release a new novella when enough people ask for another book via reviews and social media. When tons of people ask and are involved, the next book comes out fast.

  So if you like the idea and love the book, make sure you do both! Having that bit of reader involvement makes a huge difference in the success of a series. It’ll also make sure you don’t miss any voting that occurs as the series progresses.

  Last thing—there are ‘Easter eggs’ in this book. One per chapter. An ‘Easter egg’ in this case is a hidden bit from one of my other books. It can be anything from DEMON KISSED to DAMAGED 3.

  An example would be seeing a Trystan Scott poster or passing by Ivy’s high school in Demon Kissed. This is a fun game for those who have read all my books. If this is your first book of mine or you haven’t read everything, it doesn’t affect the way the book reads at all. It’s just fun hidden surprises. I did this on a smaller scale with SCANDALOUS and STRIPPED. Have fun with it!
