Acknowledgments

As always, thanks to my readers who want to return to the village of Harvest, Ohio, again and again. You have embraced Bailey of the Amish Candy Shop Mysteries. Thank you for embracing Millie from this series as well. I hope you enjoy as the characters cross over between the two series.

Special thanks, as always, to my agent, Nicole Resciniti, who always pushes me to be a better writer and bigger dreamer, and to my wonderful editor, Alicia Condon. You are both the very best. Thanks, too, to everyone at Kensington Publishing who make book writing a joy and are the easiest and kindest people to work with in the business. Also, thanks to Kimra Bell for being my second set of eyes.

Thanks, too, to Delia, Ellie, Noah, and Sofia for helping with the apple orchard research for this story.

Love and thanks to my family and especially to David, who listens to every plot a thousand times before the words ever hit the page.

And to my Heavenly Father, thank you for the gift of story.
