To the brilliant Gail Chasan and the entire team
at Harlequin/Canary Street Press. Thank you for your unwavering support
and dedication in helping me bring seventy-five stories to life.
Your guidance and hard work have been invaluable.

Thank you also to my family for enduring my deadline brain time and again
for nearly thirty years. This journey would not be possible without you,
and I love you all deeply.
