Also, my thanks to Dr. Sarah Hewitt, family nurse practitioner, for her input into the opening scenes of this book.

Thank you to my editors, Linda Ingmanson and Joyce Lamb, as well as my primary beta readers, Anne Woodall, Kara Conrad and Tracey Suppo, and continuity assistant Gwen Neff. And a big thank you to the Fatal/First Family beta readers: Jennifer, Kelly, Karina, Sarah, Irene, Gina, Ellen, Elizabeth, Mona, Kelley, Viki, Juliane, Jennifer, Phuong and Marti.

I’m so lucky to be supported by my husband, Dan, and an amazing team that takes care of so many things behind the scenes so I can write. Shout out to Julie Cupp, Lisa Cafferty, Jean Mello, Nikki Haley and Ashley Lopez as well as Dani Sanchez and the team at Wildfire Marketing.

To my amazing readers who’ve followed Sam and Nick from the Watergate to the White House, thank you so much for your devotion to their story. You make it so fun to continue writing it. More to come for Sam and Nick in the New Year. Until then, happy holidays to you and your families and all the best in 2023!

Much love,

Marie
