Many thanks go to Allison Lyons, who makes every book better! A deep well of gratitude goes to Jill Marsal, who really is the best of the best and a dream to work with.

Brandon, Jacob and Tori, the three of you light up my life in so many bright and colorful ways. I love each of you even more with every passing year, and it is is my greatest pleasure to see the beautiful people you've become.

Babe, we're watching another one of our babies test his wings. We get to enjoy a few more years with our youngest before she does the same. Then it'll be the two of us again, just like in the beginning... And a whole new set of adventures await. I love you.!
