Like the women in Sandwiched,
I lived under one roof with some fabulous females
for many years. This book is dedicated to them
with love and gratitude:
My mom, Joan Browder,
who is patient and supportive, loving and wise.
You mean the world to me.
And
Linda Heasley, Charla Walton and Angie Prince—
sisters by fate, friends by choice.
My life would not be nearly so fun
or interesting without you.
Thanks to my editor, Gail Chasan, who is
a dream to work with; and to Tara Gavin and all the other
wonderful people I’ve met at Harlequin.
Thanks to my agent, Jenny Bent,
who challenged me to make the proposal stronger, and
stuck out the tough times with me.
Thanks to the Thursday night Divas,
who offered wine and whine sessions,
encouragement and their invaluable expertise
and suggestions: Dee Virden Burks,
Jodi Koumalats, Marcy McKay, DeWanna Pace,
April Redmon and honorary Diva (whether he likes it
or not) Robert Brammer. And to the
long-distance Divas, Britta Coleman and
Candace Havens, who encouraged from afar.
Thanks to my friend, Ronda Thompson,
who met me at Schlotsky’s and saved my sanity
by helping me figure out how to
structure the dreaded synopsis.
And as always, thanks to my husband, Jeff,
who didn’t complain when the alarm went off
every morning at 5:00 a.m.; and to my son Jason who
sometimes remembered to call and let me know he was
going to miss his curfew (again);
and to my son Ryan, whose funny phone calls from
college gave me nice breaks away from the writing.
