To my husband Keir, the real Ghedi Ussier. You’ve given me nothing but support, encouragement and inspiration from the moment we met. I’ll never forget our first real conversation, sitting on the lawn between our parents’ houses and talking about other worlds and our made up characters until we were forced to go home. You’ve been my best friend for over twenty years and I’ve been more than proud to be your wife for the last ten. I love you.

I WANT to give a special thanks to Mychael Black and Shayne Carmichael who gave me my inspiration for Jacob and Kristair, not to mention my first opportunity as an author. I will forever be grateful to them.
