A massive thank you to everyone who has supported my
writing over the years. Whether
 
you read
over a draft or were simply just there for me, thank you.

To name names, a big thank you goes out to my parents for
always supporting me, no matter what I do, and trusting that I would get here
eventually! Thank you to the rest of the Field family for their love and
support, and also to the Goslings for theirs.

Olga and Lauren – the two best friends a girl could have – I
finally did it! Thank you for always being there for me and for your unwavering
support that definitely extends beyond my writing!

Sharon, Rachel P, Rachel W, Hayley, Liz, Kate, Isabelle, Lesley,
Clare, Kathy and Jill – plus a lot of names I will have temporarily blanked
whilst writing this but will remember as soon as I hit publish – thank you for
believing in me! Thanks to all my Twitter friends as well who have always
shared positive thoughts and tweets about my writing: Hannah, Paula and Ditty,
that’s you guys especially!

Sarah Ridley, my editor, deserves a big thank you, as does
Will Duffy who made my awesome book cover. I look forward to working with you
both on the next one!

Finally, a big thank you to Olly for being there to hold my
hand when I hit publish, and for being there to hold my hand in general. I love
you.
