Acknowledgements

Thanks to my husband, Gerry, for your constant love, patience and support, and for humouring me! Thanks, Mam, Alex and Steve for always believing in me and being there when I need you.

I’m grateful to all my friends; not only for encouraging me in this adventure but also for the good times we’ve spent together. It’s easy to become hermit-like as a writer and I so appreciate your company. Special thanks go to Diana McGarry, Sue Johns and all the members of the Word Cloud online writing community. I couldn’t do this without your advice, critiques and proofreading.

I’m enormously grateful to everyone who reviewed Future Perfect, either on Amazon, Goodreads or book blogs. Reviews greatly increase the book’s visibility and create sales. If you’ve enjoyed this one, please consider leaving a review; every one counts!

To all the new friends I’ve made through social media, thanks for enriching my working day.

Thanks to Alex Storer for a wonderful cover design; you expressed my vision perfectly. And finally, massive thanks to Peter Buck and the team at Elsewhen Press for all the work you do – you’ve made a lifelong dream come true and opened up a whole new world for me.
