Be as much as I loved writing it. If you did, would you mind writing a quick review? It doesn’t have to be long, and I’d appreciate it. Reviews make it easier for new readers to discover my books for the first time.

If you want to contact me directly, that’s great too—I love hearing from readers. The Facebook links for my Author Page and Reading Group are below. Or, if you’d rather just hang out and see what I’m up to, that’s okay too. My Author Page has the latest news. You can also find me on my website. All the links are right here.

Acknowledgments

Once again, I’d like to thank the talented team at Bookouture for helping to shape this story into something wonderful. To my insightful editor, Kathryn Taussig, who can always see the story, no matter how murky the first draft. To Kim Nash and Noelle Holten, who make launching a book look easy when I know it’s not. And to the authors in the Bookouture Lounge, you are inspiring and I’m glad to know all of you.

To my sister Heather, for the crash course on points of real-estate closings and zoning laws. To my brother John, who answered every one of my construction questions, though I’m sure he screened most of my calls toward the end. To my writing group, whose weekly Zoom meetings got me through 2020. Eight years, you guys, can you believe it? Ann Reckner, Heather Stewart-McCurdy, Laurie Rockenbeck, Sandy Esene, and Liz Visner—you’re the best.

I’d also like to thank Kelly Dwyer, whose insight and suggestions helped bring this story to life. I’m grateful.

And my most sincere gratitude goes to my readers. Thank you for reading and thank you for reaching out to tell me how much my stories have meant to you.

It is my honor to write for such an engaged audience.
