The Duke’s Obsession Bundle (108 page)

For a tadpole author to see her debut trilogy published in the space of a year is terrifically gratifying. This takes a lot of patience on the part of the publisher’s staff, because the author is very much learning the process by the seat of her pants. My thanks go to Sourcebooks’s publisher, Dominique Raccah, for many reasons; to my editor, Deb Werksman, for even more reasons; and to all the troops at Sourcebooks, Inc., who’ve had a hand (yes, Valentine) in creating this lovely little book: Skye, Susie, Cat, Danielle, Madame Copy Editor, cover artist Anne Cain, and all the unsung heroes in marketing, art, bookmaking, and everywhere in between.

And there’s one other person I need to thank: My first piano teacher. The late Kaye Rossi instilled in me a love of music that brings me joy to this day.
