ACKNOWLEDGMENTS

I would like to give special thanks to my editor, Michaela Hamilton, of Kensington Books, for her guidance, confidence, and unending patience with me. If I could give advice to new writers it would be to “listen to your editor.”

I would also like to thank all the staff at Kensington Books who have worked so hard. Without them my book would still be on my hard drive.

For my special friends at The Church Street Coffee House in New Harmony, Indiana; Laura Hudgins and her son Elliot; Molly and Mickey Grimm and their son Grafton; and all the rest of you New Harmony town characters, a big thank-you for your unending support and for allowing me to spend many pleasurable hours in your company.

I would also like to thank Linda Cutteridge, Deborah Wozniak, Buffy Baker, and Gillian Robertson for reading and proofing this story when it was still in its infancy.
