Lured into Lies by Melanie Martins

Acknowledgments

A big thank you to all of you for reading my third book, Lured into Lies, part of the Blossom in Winter series. I’m so grateful for the amazing support, positivity, and excitement you’ve shown, from my community on social media, my friends and family, to coffee shop owners where I hang out, etc. Thank you all so much!

Thank you to my editors, Haley and Caroline, who have made this book what it is today. I’m blessed to have met you both.

To all the influencers and bloggers who have spent their free time reading, reviewing, and sharing it online and offline: I love you guys!

To those who inspired me to write this series:

My life partner, best friend, and compagnon de route, Diogo, thank you for always standing by my side and trusting my craziness. Ten years with you have only felt like ten minutes.

My Roy Van Gatt—my dear friend Roy, you were officially my first reader. Thank you for all of your support, loyalty, and kind words.

And, not that surprisingly, my own private school in Portugal, which is over seventy years old now and gave me the best memories a teenager could ever dream of. Thank you for empowering the arts, from the studies of history of art and culture, to painting classes, dance, music, and acting—thank you.

I’m currently working on the last book of the series, Defying Eternity. All I can say is: expect the unexpected!
