I
would like to express my heartfelt gratitude to several people who made this book possible. Thank you to Jessica Alvarez for the years of encouragement and support, as first my editor and now as my agent. I appreciate your believing in me. Thank you to Beth Adams and everyone at Howard Books for taking a chance on a new-to-you author. It's been a pleasure working on this book with you. Thank you to my family for always being supportive during the deadline days. And finally, thank you to author Leah Vale—I couldn't ask for a better friend and critique partner.
