With deepest thanks to my husband, for his love and support; to Amanda, for her wonderful critiques; and to Farihah, advisor on all things Anglo-Indian (and, of course, Bengali!).
As we wrap up the Matchmaker trilogy, my gratitude goes out to the entire Sourcebooks team, who create such beautiful cover art and who guide the production, publicity, and marketing of my books with such savvy. Special thanks to my editor, Deb Werksman, who has an unerring instinct for how to make my books stronger. Thanks too, to my agent, Paige Wheeler, who always offers wonderful insight and guidance.
And to you, dear readers. My stories are for you; I’m so grateful you found them.
