‘It would be a pleasure,’ beams Liz as she hoists her bag over her shoulder. ‘You don’t have to worry about a thing. I’m here to change your life.’

Acknowledgements
 

As always, a team of people have helped, not only with this book, but with the life I had to live in order to write it.

My enormous gratitude, as ever, to my long-term agent in the UK, Anthony Goff, and my newfound agent here in the US, Christy Fletcher, who continues to astound me with her wise and continuous presence in my life.

My team at St. Martin’s: Jen Enderlin, Sally Richardson, Stephanie Hargadon, Lisa Senz, Nancy Trypuc, Jeff Dodes, Angelique Giammarino, and Laura Wilson at Macmillan Audio.

Julie Chudow, Danielle Burch and Sarah Hall of Sarah Hall Publicity.

Meg Walker of Tandem Literary. Carly Sommerstein for the great editing.

Shayla Smith and Sue Redston.

To Rae and Molly at the Squam Lake Inn, who provided me with a beautiful place to write, and sweet treats to keep me happy.

Xavier Mayonove and all at the International Culinary Center in New York.

The very many bloggers, book lovers, readers and people who have supported me for so long, and particularly Melissa Amster, Amy Bromberg, and Robin Kall Homonoff.

The doctors who put right the wrongs, and brought me back to myself – to them I do, truly, owe my life: Dr Frank Lipman, Dr Michael Doyle, Dr Amiram Katz, Tish Fried and Patrick McCord of Write Yourself Free in Westport, where I write my books and cuddle Bertie.

Michael Ross and Mark Lamos at the Westport Country Playhouse, who have been endlessly supportive.

To my many friends, my tribe, my family of choice. And my husband Ian. Still beloved, after all these years. I love you.
