Robin Rue, Claire Zion, Jen Doyle, and Liz Sellers for believing in this new series. Thank you all so very much.
The Starfish—Brian, Cheryl, Christine, Kathy, Sheila, and Susan—for the plotting help and for the questions you asked about my characters that made everything fall into place.
Andrew Grey for being my word count partner. Your daily encouragement made the words flow like water.
Martin Hafer for the background on the ethics of psychological professionals. And for feeding me when I was so busy writing that I forgot to eat.
Sarah Hafer for the editing.
Margaret Taylor for listening to my ramblings and for providing such valuable information.
As always, all mistakes are my own.
