Acknowledgments

A hermit can write a book, sure, but it takes a village to publish one. A Rogue to Remember is no exception, and it is all the better for it.

Thanks to my fantastic agent, Amanda Jain, and my brilliant editor, Junessa Viloria, who both read this book almost as many times as I did and always offered up new insights. Thank you for taking a chance on Lottie and Alec and for making this debut author’s dreams come true.
