Acknowledgments
This book does not belong solely to Lindsay and I, but rather to the people whose faith in us as authors made it possible. A heartfelt thank you to our agents, Kevan Lyon and Kathleen Rushall, for being our grounding point as we plotted, wrote, and revised this manuscript. To our amazing editor, Brian Farrey-
Latz, for seeing the potential in this story concept when it was nothing more than a three-sentence pitch, and Sandy Sullivan, whose keen eye and attention to detail made this book shine. Thanks to our families, whose unwavering support makes all things in our writing world possible. And to our friends and critique partners, Jenni Walsh and Tracey Neithercott, for their long-distance moral support.
