Acknowledgments
Thanks to my alpha read duo, Kathy Harward and Mary Guidry, for their advice and inspiration as they read along with this book, and to Mary for her assistance with other author business so I could write.
Thanks to my puppy, Brodie, who was the inspiration for Buddy, and for taking walks with me and not eating any more of the manuscript than he absolutely had to.
Thanks to my husband, Rick Nolting, for reading along and feeding me and generally putting up with the author.
Thank you to New Zealand for being itself.
And finally, one big giant thank-you to my wonderful readers. I appreciate you.
