Huge thanks as always to Heather Holden-Brown, my wonderful agent. Heather, your unfailing enthusiasm for my books has hauled me out of several pits of self-doubt, so thank you!
A million thanks also to the incredible team at Avon, particularly my lovely, super-talented and endlessly patient editor, Phoebe Morgan.
And of course, my family and friends. Your love and encouragement make this publishing adventure of mine even more rewarding and exciting than it already is. I couldn’t have achieved my dream without you!
