I also want to thank Jo Mackay from MIRA Harlequin and HC. From the outset, Jo was such a terrific champion of this story. She understood what I was trying to do and was determined it would get the title, cover and coverage it deserved. I am so grateful to you, Jo, for your understanding and support. I also want to thank my wonderful editor, Annabel Blay — a rock and a steady hand who guides the story ship safely into port. She also ensured I was once more working with the capable and marvellous Linda Funnell. Linda and I have worked together on all my historical fiction and I’m just so damn grateful for her insights, corrections, sharp observations, suggestions and the rest. Thank you. Thank you. A huge shout out to my eagle-eyed proofreader Annabel Adair as well. Thanks so much. I also want to thank the rest of the incredible team at MIRA Harlequin and HC — from the gorgeous Natika Palka and Sarana Behan, to James Kellow, Adam Van Rooijen, and the sensational Sue Brockhoff and to all those in marketing, sales, and the entire shebang. I so appreciate you.

A huge thanks as well to my US agents, Jim Frenkel, and Associates, in particular, Catherine Pfeifer. Jim and Catherine are such staunch advocates of this tale and my work in general — as well as being lovely to work with — and I am very grateful to be part of their literary family.
