A big thanks to my publisher, HarperCollins Christian Publishing, for allowing me to create characters who are close to my heart and for giving me the freedom to step outside the box when it comes to this genre.
Much appreciation to my editors, Kimberly Carlton and Jodi Hughes. And for all of those important folks behind the scenes, a big thanks to you also!
To my agent, Natasha Kern, I’m so blessed that we are on this journey together. You are such an important part of my life, both professionally and personally. Xo
Janet Murphy—my friend, my assistant, my media/marketing guru—you continue to rock. By the time this book releases we will have worked together about eleven years. Wow. Who would have thought that day we met at the Mexican restaurant would have landed us where we are today? I love and appreciate you.
Another round of thanks to my street team, Wiseman’s Warriors! You gals are the greatest.
To all the folks in Indiana who have opened their homes and hearts—Amish and non-Amish—thank you for the encouragement, hospitality, and blessings. Indiana has truly become a second home to me.
My family and friends continue to be amazing, supporting me on every project. I love you all. Extra thanks to my amazing hubby, Patrick Mackey. I love you, Dear.
And to God the Father, saying thank you will never be enough for the many ways You have blessed me. I can only try to continuously follow Your lead and to write stories I hope entertain and glorify You.
