The First Date: A heartwarming and laugh out loud romantic comedy book that will make you feel happy
Page 29
Emily Ruston, my editor, you continue to amaze me with your ability to read beyond my words and understand what I am trying to convey – and then manage to tease it out of me in the nicest possible way.
Harry, my four-legged bundle of mischief who keeps me company, gives me kisses galore and helps to keep my waistline from spreading too much – I owe you some extra cuddles and long walks now this is done.
Thanks also to Deborah Carr and Louise Nicholson who suggested the name Hugo for the gorgeous Great Dane in the book – it suits him perfectly!
And last, but certainly not least, a massive thanks to you, for reading this story. Please do stay in touch – I love reading your messages, chatting to you on social media, and your lovely reviews make my day!
