I want to thank my editor Faith Black Ross, my copy editor Michelle Hope Anderson, and publisher Amy Hosford for all their support and expertise. A novel is such a collaborative effort, and I am grateful for everyone who has helped or made suggestions, including Natasha Kern, Carol Moncado, Linore Burkard, Grace Dickerson, Faith Dickerson, and Debbie Lynne Costello.
I also want to express heartfelt thanks to all my readers who have posted positive reviews on Amazon, Goodreads, other review sites, and their blogs for my books through the years, not to mention the kind e-mails and messages on Facebook and Twitter. They are appreciated more than you know! May God bless you. I love my readers.
