As always, there are communities of people whom I’d like to thank for helping me during my writing journey. A huge thank-you to my readers, who have emailed and sent me messages on social media sites, asking me to write faster and to bring you the Braden siblings’ stories faster. You inspire me on a daily basis, and I appreciate each and every one of you. Please keep the letters coming. I do write faster when I know you’re waiting.

I must extend an extra virtual hug to Bonnie Trachtenberg and Kristen Weber, who fielded all of my questions regarding New York and the surrounding area. You have the patience of saints, and I appreciate your time and energy.

A hearty thank-you to the community of bloggers, readers, authors, and friends who support me and cheer me on through social media and email. Thank you for believing in me. Gratitude and hugs to my girlfriends Kathie, Stacy, Amy, Bonnie, Wendy, Christine, Gerria, Kian, Clare, Amy, Emerald, Tasha, Marlene, Juliette, and, of course, my mother. Thank you for being there in good times and bad.

My characters would be peaking when they should be peeking and doing other things that would make no sense at all if it weren’t for my editorial team. These women deserve buckets of chocolate: Kristen Weber, Penina Lopez, Jenna Bagnini, Juliette Hill, and Marlene Engel.

Rachelle Ayala and Natasha Brown, thank you for your formatting and cover expertise. As always, thank you for making my life much easier, even when I make yours much more difficult.

To Les and my youngest boys, thanks for being my biggest fans and most patient supporters. I love you.
