ACKNOWLEDGMENTS

I have been told it is rare for your first sale to be the book of your heart. That happened for me, and I thank Leis Pederson and the crew at Penguin InterMix for making this a wonderful experience.

Thanks also to friends who supported my dream through the years, particularly in my two hometowns of Forney, Texas and Edzell, Scotland.

Melissa MacGregor
grew up in Scotland and wandered through the twists and turns of Edinburgh on school trips while evading the guidance of her bewildered chaperones. After undergraduate school back in Texas, she settled into writing about the people and places she has loved. She lives near Dallas in a hundred-year-old farmhouse, which she shares with her Catahoula cur, Thibideaux.
