As with all my novels, this story hasn’t been without its challenges. A big thanks to my support network, who helped keep me on track and keep my sanity (an amazing accomplishment, considering).
Firstly, as always, my husband Willie and my children, Georgia and Cameron. Thanks for everything, always. I couldn’t do this without you guys, nor would I want to. I love you. And Georgia – thanks for helping me work through the titles until we found this one – yay us!
My editor and friend, Sarah Widdup, is the possessor of talents which know no bounds. Not only did she wrangle the manuscript into submission, she wrote the beautiful lyrics for the song at the end of this story, ‘Wings Beat the Sky’. Again, above and beyond, dude – I am so grateful! And thanks for letting me use your nickname for Sass’s character. What can I say? You inspire me.
Anita B. Carroll of Race-Point.com has again created a superb cover image – thank you so much for sticking with me and working through it, I couldn’t be more pleased. Always a pleasure to work with you.
My amazing beta readers – Sandi Laubhan, Jennie Coull, Amanda Edwards, Sherralynne Dewhirst, Kathy Townsend and Tracy Skerratt – you guys, as usual, were amazing. Thank you for your honest feedback, which helped to make this book more than I hoped it would be. And thank you for your support and encouragement throughout the process (I rely on you guys more than you know).
Neda Amini at Ardent Prose PR – thank you for your help and support, and for joining me on this crazy, unpredictable journey.
Big thanks to CP Smith at Affordable Formatting for turning this manuscript into a beautiful ebook and paperback.
