***BECAUSE OF REVISIONS & CHAPTER UPDATES, some comments may seem out of place -- please be advised ♥ ***

Thank you to my family, that supports every story I release and encourages me to pursue my dreams. To my best friends, who are constant inspirations for the imaginary worlds I create in my head. To my boyfriend, who is a source of joy in this crazy chaos, and who gives me the time I need to concoct my stories.

To my betas (for when I was initially self-published with this series): Lisa, Magic, Natali, G.R. Thomas, and Carina, You were all so incredibly helpful, insightful, and I cannot appreciate you enough for how you've helped me flesh this little novella into a story I treasure, and that I hope readers will treasure, too.

To my readers, I love you, I thank you, I appreciate you more than you know.

And to other authors, especially those in the indie publishing/self-publishing business, thank you. Your support and encouragement have been essential in convincing me not to give up, even in my darkest times. Never, ever, give up.

WILD CARD originated on Wattpad, through the ONC (Open Novella Contest) in 2020. Upon writing it, I never knew an entire universe would develop around it, and that I'd fall in love with all the characters I created.

While it didn't go far in the competition, it left a sizeable hole in my heart when I wasn't continuing the story—so once finished with book one, I moved along to write book two, PAINTED LADY (now renamed CROSS SUIT), which then opened up wild possibilities for sequels.

I ended up removing the series & opting to self-publish it; but unfortunately, I couldn't seem to reach an audience, nor find my niche or my readers, no matter the kind reviews & enthusiastic readers I did find along the way. 

The SUITS series is now composed of FIVE novellas*.
(*UPDATE: all five books will now be full-length novels) 

I WOULD LIKE TO CAUTION ANYONE WHO READ WILD CARD in its original format: the series is more mature and a bit darker now (violence, open-door scenes, language, some mild triggers etc.). Chapters with hints of spice or full-blown sex-scenes will be indicated with a 🔥

Proceed at your own risk.

I look forward to your comments, your praise (hopefully), your concerns, your theories—ALL OF IT.

Please join me in giving WILD CARD a huge welcome back to its home, Wattpad. ♥
