To all my early readers of Broken Homes & Gardens, many of whom read draft after draft—Coral Anderson, Abby Schmidt, Gina Kelley, Anne McKee Reed, Felisa Salvago-Keyes, Lynne Nolan, Angie Culbert, Andy Henroid, and Christi R. Suzanne—thank you!
Many thanks to all the members of Writers Anonymous, past and present, for their advice and encouragement over the last five years. I am so lucky to be a part of this supportive and somewhat drunken writing crew.
To my agent, Jennifer Chen Tran, without you, this book wouldn’t be published. Thank you so much, for everything.
And of course, I want to thank the team at Blank Slate Press, for believing in this book and making it happen.
