Author's note:

This is Book 2 in the “Mercy on the Bayou” Series and is not a standalone book. This series does not feature Fortune Redding as the main character.

Other than Jana DeLeon's original story elements, the characters and names are creations of the author's imagination.

Events, timeline, and descriptions in this book/series may not coincide with those in the original Miss Fortune series.

Special thanks to Jana DeLeon and J&R Fan Fiction for making this possible.

Also Kit Dawson, Line Editor.
