Behind the scenes is my fantastic cheerleader, aka agent, Michelle Grajkowski, who pushes and pulls (and consoles) all with a smile on her face, and my steadfast, smart editor Alison Dasho, who says things like “I’m not worried. I have absolute confidence in this book,” which is the best thing an editor can say to her author. And I can’t leave out Selina McLemore, whose insightful guidance provided the bumpers for the story and kept me focused on what really matters. The entire Montlake team is fairly amazing at choosing just the right cover, getting the book to reviewers, promoting, shipping, placing, and positioning, all with an eye toward giving readers a good read. I couldn’t feel more blessed by a publishing house.

And lastly, thanks to my mama and daddy, who taught me how to adult, but more importantly, gave me love, support, and encouragement so that when I fell down, I had a good reason to get back up and fight. I love you both more than you’ll ever know.
