Dedication
This and all I do is for God’s Glory
To friends, then and now.
To Ronny, you are my inspiration always.
This book wouldn’t exist if it weren’t for my wonderful husband, Ronny, who cooked dinners and ignored the dust bunnies hopping around. My family and friends have been there encouraging more times than they know. Thanks to my mother, Marian Young, Herb, Carol, Blanche, Jay, Barb, Eric, Donna, Didi, Carl, Cork, Bob and all the rest—too many to list by name.
A special thanks to Terry Whalin who took the time to phone a struggling writer and suggest I join American Christian Fiction Writers.
I couldn’t have done it without my critique partners so thanks to Candee Fick, Donald Roome, Dianna T. Benson, Virginia Tenery, Lynda Quinn, Fay Lamb, and all the Scribes for their advice, and encouragement.
And to critique partner and friend, Pam Cowart, your help and input on Pursued was invaluable.
No words can express my gratitude to the Creator for all His blessings, big and small.
