Black Horse (24 page)

I would like to thank my parents, Ortencia and Cecil Bettger; my children, Brian, Tiffany and Jason Blake; my daughters-in-law Heather Blake and Charlotte Thomas for their love and support and for always believing in me. Thanks to my dear friend, Helena Silva Bond for being my biggest fan and giving me the extra push that I needed to finish this book. And, a special thanks to my editor, Alicia Condon, for giving me a chance to pursue my dreams.
