Acknowledgments

Andrea’s story wasn’t an easy one to tell, but I felt that it needed to be, and that by the time you’ve reached the end, you can see that no matter what you’re facing or the mistakes you have made, there is always a happily ever after waiting for you.

First and foremost, a major thank you to the team at Spencer Hill Press—Kate Kaynak, Jessica Porteous, Rachel Rothman-Cohen, and Cindy Thomas for bringing Scorched to life, and to my awesomely awesome agent Kevan Lyon for always having my back, and major thanks to K.P. Simmons and the Inkslinger PR team.

Thank you Stacey Morgan for not only being an epic friend, but a wonderful assistant who helps keep me sane. Another big thank you to Laura Kaye, Sophie Jordan, Tiffany King, Chelsea Cameron, Jen Fisher, Damaris Cardinali, Jay Crownover, and Cora Carmack (to name a few) who help me procrastinate on a near daily basis.

This book wouldn’t have happened if it had not been for you, the reader. Thank you so much for supporting this story and me. There can never be enough thank yous in the world.

#1 New York Times and USA Today Bestselling Author Jennifer L. Armentrout lives in West Virginia. All the rumors you’ve heard about her state aren’t true. Well, mostly. When she’s not hard at work writing, she spends her time reading, working out, watching zombie movies, and pretending to write. She shares her home with her husband, his K-9 partner named Diesel, and her hyper Jack Russell, Loki. Her dreams of becoming an author started in algebra class, where she spent her time writing short stories…therefore explaining her dismal grades in math. Jennifer writes Adult and Young Adult Urban Fantasy and Romance.
