Acknowledgments

A hermit can write a book, sure, but it takes a village to publish one. A Rogue to Remember is no exception, and it is all the better for it.

Thanks to my fantastic agent, Amanda Jain, and my brilliant editor, Junessa Viloria, who both read this book almost as many times as I did and always offered up new insights. Thank you for taking a chance on Lottie and Alec and for making this debut author’s dreams come true.

To my beta readers, A. Y. Chao, Colette Dixon, C. R. Grissom, Katy James, and Evi Kline. Thank you for your time and early encouragement.

To my cousin Katie for her unbridled enthusiasm for this story when I needed it most.

To the inhabitants of Rebelle Island for providing support and commiseration in equal measure.

To my family and friends for treating me like a professional writer long before I ever was one.

And to my husband, who has maintained from the earliest days of our relationship that I would publish a book one day. It only took thirteen years, but you were right.
