And since we’re talking about borrowed identities: to the lovely residents of the Bruce Peninsula, especially the very real town of Tobermory, I apologize for any liberties I took in manipulating the geography of your beautiful region to suit my story’s purposes.
Thanks also to:
The Wardham Ambassadors, my Facebook reader group, who helped by naming Rafe and Olivia’s daughter, pointing out a better name for Zander’s book, and just by asking for this book as soon as Ryan’s released. Really, thank you for that—writers never tire of hearing that you want more of their work.
Kristi Yanta, who did the first editorial pass on this book and thanks to her, the last quarter of this book is different and better. She saw Faith and Zander so clearly and pushed me to dig deeper where it counted. I’m so lucky to have her trusted eyes be the first to see Pine Harbour books.
Shelly Small and Dana Waganer for tightening my prose and catching the tiny mistakes.
Lynn, Elizabeth, Jaycee, Jessica, Marlene, Bev and a few other ARC readers who caught little inconsistencies here and there—I appreciate that you took the time to send me a note!
Lori, Pine Harbour’s biggest fan, for keeping track of the cast of secondary characters better than I can, and helping me with all of the admin tasks so I can focus on writing.
Lee Brice for all of his ballads, but particularly “I Don’t Dance” and “Stealing Innocence”.
And finally to my family, who are the most understanding and supportive crew a girl could ever want.
Thank you all.
Zoe
