I have so many people to thank for helping me write Hooked on You. A huge thank you to my agent, Natasha Kern, for helping me get through the writing process during the toughest year of mylife. To the editors who worked alongside me on this book: Becky Monds, who helped me talk through the book and series ideas;Karli Jackson, who did an amazing job showing me the potential of Riley and Hayden’s story; Jodi Hughes, who made sure allthe details were exactly right (I’m not a detail person!); and Laura Wheeler, who managed the project so beautifully. A bigthank you also to my good friend Laura Larimore, who introduced me to the real-life Lorri and her wonderful yarn shop, whichsparked the idea for Erma, Riley, and the rest of the citizens of Maple Falls.

I especially want to thank the Books & Hooks Facebook group for all their input and help in coming up with the business namesin Maple Falls. It was so much fun getting your ideas and voting on favorite names, and they were all perfect for this smallArkansas town.
