“It’s all right, you’re doing great. Keep breathing, Kathleen; keep breathing.”
Kathleen.
Declan never called me Kathleen, not once in my whole life. I stared at the man standing above me and realized it wasn’t Declan, although he looked so much like him. My heart started beating fast again. After the nurse came in, something pricked my arm and a moment later my eyelids became heavy. Then everything went black.

Acknowledgments
Wow. Doesn’t time fly when you’re having fun? A year has already passed since the release of my latest novel. Little did I know, a year ago, that I’d be writing this story, but David had been scrambling to get my attention ever since writing Healing Our Hearts, and I thought it was only fair that I’d tell his story, too. Mainly so he would stop shouting “Pick me! Pick me!” in my head.
So there you go, now you know how I came up with the idea for this book.
Now, back to the thank yous.
A big shout out to my beta readers as well as to my Irish friends who helped making the first draft presentable. Thank you Lisa, Breanna, Michelle and Fiona/Mary for your precious feedback and for providing all the info on the Irish school system. All mistakes are mine and mine alone.
Thank you, Lauren McKellar, my stellar editor who, as usual, did a great job with the first draft. Your funny and smart comments helped me turn the book into something special.
Thank you to my fantastic cover designer and online friend, Najla. I had no doubt you’d manage to turn my confused ideas into yet another wonderful cover. I can’t wait to work with you again!
Thank you to all the bloggers who’ve helped me spread the word about my books and who’ve given me a chance even though I’m not a NY Times best-selling author. Your help is vital for all authors, especially us indie authors and we appreciate all you do for us. Keep up the good work!
And lastly, thank you reader, for buying my books and leaving beautiful reviews. I’ll never tire of saying how important your feedback is for authors, and the fact that you took the time to write a few lines to help other readers discover my books was the biggest reward. Knowing you enjoyed my stories warms my heart every single time and it’s definitely the best part of being an author. It’s why I keep writing!
About the Author
Grace Roberts writes heartwarming stories set in Ireland or in small towns in the United States—two places where she’d love to live while writing full-time. She’s also an avid reader who thinks daydreaming should be a paid profession and that the world would be a better place if bookworms ruled it.
Growing up as an only child, she spent all her free time with her nose stuck in books, enjoying the company of fictional friends, while dreaming of becoming an author. Discovering books by Rosamunde Pilcher was the turning point in her life, and she decided to start writing down the stories that kept playing in her head, just for fun. After the first couple of stories, though, she found it impossible to stop—and she’s been writing ever since.
