Thank you to Nora Ephron, Cameron Crowe, Amy Heckerling, and, of course, John Hughes, for a lifetime worth of inspiration and honest, romantic, unforgettable stories. Thank you to the Killers for music to write to and dream by.

I'm so grateful to my mom for all her enthusiasm and support throughout the years and for babysitting so that I could write. Which leads me to thank my darling son, who outraced this book out into the world, and my husband, Graig. I love you both up all the hidden staircases in Hogwarts . . . and back.
