Second, to the group of girls who read this book while I wrote it, gave me feedback, and generally kept me from going crazy! Jessica—thank you for loving the assholes I create, no matter what villainous things they do. Bridget—thank you, in turn, for always loving my nice guys and inevitably making me want to write books about them. Rebecca—thank you for good music and seemingly sharing a brain with me. And, of course, thank you to Diana Peterfreund, who whipped my ass into shape and gave me invaluable advice while writing. ¦

Also, to my early readers—I really appreciate you taking a chance on Bri and your expert feedback. I know she’s kind of a lovable unlikable character, but she just kind of owns it. So, thank you, Trish Brinkley, Katie Miller, Lori Francis, Jessica Sotelo, and Amy McAvoy.

Ahhhh! Lauren Blakely, thank you so much for the incredible blurb for this book as well as for taking a chance on my angst-filled ride. P.S. Can we go to Paris? I need some new jeans. Also, thank you to Emma Hart, Kendall Ryan, and Corinne Michaels, who let me drive them crazy during the months before this book released.

I’d like to thank Sarah Hansen of Okay Creations, who created this brilliant masterpiece of covers for the All That Glitters series. I basically handed you the titles, and you completely blew me out of the water!

As always, thank you to my beautiful editor and formatter, Jovana Shirley at Unforeseen Editing! You always do a fantastic job on all your books, and this one is no exception.

Additionally, thank you to Christine at Shh Mom’s Reading, for dedicating so much time to putting together all my release information and generally keeping me on task!

I’d also like to thank my family, who encouraged me to write this book when the idea to write a how-Bryna-became-a-gold-digger book popped into my mind on the seven-hour drive to New Orleans for our cruise. Thanks for dealing with my randomness when I’d get up at three a.m. on the ship, pull out my laptop, and just start typing away because I couldn’t get Bryna out of my head. Couldn’t be here without you. Love you Mom, Dad, Brittany, and Shea. And, of course, I couldn’t get through everyday life without my fiance, Joel, and my two puppies, Riker and Lucy. ¦

Last, but certainly not least, YOU! I want to thank you for taking a chance and reading the first in this new series I’m already wildly obsessed with. Thank you for purchasing this book, for hopefully loving it, and for writing me a short review on what you thought! I can’t wait for you to get the second book in the series, Gold! Love you all! And thank you for letting me pursue my dreams!
