Acknowledgments

Thank you to my editor, John Scognamiglio, and my agent, Evan Marshall. I am so lucky that these men are so supportive, always willing to help with plot questions or advice. Thanks, Evan, for lending your “agent hat” to this book. Thank you, Caroline Lennon, for giving voice to all my characters. Thank you to all my friends, colleagues, and acquaintances willing to share recipes, tips, info, and support. Thank you to Bridget Quinn, Andrea Carter, Susan Collins, Kevin Collins, Lorraine, Tracy Clark, and Annmarie and James Sheedy. My family is always there for me, so I’d like to thank them as well: Carl and Jill Carter, Pat Carter, Melissa Carter-Newman, Amelia Newman, Elijah Newman, and Matthew Newman. Thank you to James and Vincent Collins, who cheered me up during quarantine with their beautiful singing and dancing. Never stop! Thank you to my neighbors who dropped cookies and treats at my door and helped celebrate my quarantine birthday: shout out to Kari Bloom, Marie Guillory, and Nathalie Gribinski!
