Acknowledgements
There is so much love, energy, and effort that goes into writing a book—and it would”ve been possible without the help and encouragement of my tribe. For that reason, I wanted to express my gratitude.
First, many thanks goes out to my family, especially my rockstar, rock-steady husband, Rob. There aren”t enough words in English, Finnish, or Italian that can accurately convey the depth of my appreciation for the emotional and practical support you give me, just so I can chase my dream. I love you. And I”m sorry you married a bit of a nutter (but I am glad it was me!).
To Mary, Deb, Natalie, and Violet, my friends who read my janky alpha drafts, give me space to talk plot, and who cheer me through any challenges. I wouldn”t have built up the courage to hit publish if it weren”t for you.
I must also thank everyone on my publishing team: Kaylee, Ellie, Mary, and Angela. Despite my chaotic energy, with your help, we got there in the end!
And finally, thank you, reader. I can”t tell you how long it”s taken me to put on my big girl panties and get brave enough to tell my stories, but without you, I”d be talking into the void. So, thank you so much for being here. I hope you”ll join me for another tale soon.
