Acknowledgments

I must start by thanking my husband for taking me back to England to experience Cornwall. For waiting patiently while I covered every inch of the Tintagel ruins and for going deep into the tin mine with me. He is the best! I didn’t even mind that he fell asleep in the passenger seat and made me drive all the way from our house in St. Ives to Bodmin Moor—and back. I got to listen to Jamaica Inn while driving to the actual Jamaica Inn.

Thanks again to Samantha Millburn for taking my gibberish and helping turn it into a book that (hopefully) makes sense. I have so much gratitude for all the folks at Covenant who use their talents and skills to make my books lovely. They are all wonderful people!

Special thanks to my beta readers. Your honesty is brutal but appreciated more than you know. Tiffany, as always, cheers to you for starting everything and being beta-reader supreme. Michelle, for taking the time even with newborn number four. And, Rachel, I can’t wait to return the favor!

My final shout out is to Stuart, Brady, Jacob, and Maren. I’m not sure they consider me a “real” author yet, but that’s okay. I’m just happy to be their mom.
