A writer could not survive without her writerly friends. Thank you, Elaine Clampitt and Kimberly Buckner for the hours at Starbucks, the brainstorming during Avalanche games, and the professional retreats by the pool in Mexico. I would not have finished this book without you!
To my big sis, Erin Romero, thank you for loving my books so much that you share them with all of your friends. And even some strangers. Thanks for being one of my biggest cheerleaders.
I will never run out of words of gratitude for my forbearing husband. Being married to a writer is no easy task, and he has truly become my hero. Will, you might be the most patient man alive. I love you. Last but never least, to my two cherished sons, AJ and Kaleb—thank you for making my life such a joyful adventure.
About the Author
Sara Richardson grew up chasing adventure in Colorado’s rugged mountains. She’s climbed to the top of a 14,000-foot peak at midnight, swum through Class IV rapids, completed her wilderness first-aid certification, and spent seven days at a time tromping through the wilderness with a thirty-pound backpack strapped to her shoulders.
Eventually Sara did the responsible thing and got an education in writing and journalism. After a brief stint in the corporate writing world, she stopped ignoring the voices in her head and started writing fiction. Now she uses her experience as a mountain adventure guide to write stories that incorporate adventure with romance. Still indulging her adventurous spirit, Sara lives and plays in Colorado, with her saint of a husband and two young sons.
