With many thanks to Renita Lofton McKinney of A Book A Day Author Services for the professional sensitivity edit of Under Parr. This book and my writing are better because of her help. If you’re an author and writing outside your culture or need a developmental edit in general, I highly recommend A Book A Day Author Services.

And thank you to my Reader Sensitivity Team: Cindy De Suza Herbert, Marie Fowler, and Serena Buffaloe for keeping my foot out of my mouth. You ladies are awesome.

And as always, Angie Ramey and Michelle Schmidt, my friends and co-workers who support all these books.

In Memoriam

Janice Owen

My friend and final proofreader

If you’ve read any of my books the last five years,

her fingerprints are on them.

Thank you, Janice, and Godspeed.
