Acknowledgements
As always writing a book is a long and stressful process and without these people, this book would not have been possible.
To my wonderful editors Susan Ryan and Michelle Barton. You two made this so much easier! I couldn't have done this without you, especially towards the end when I was ready to pull out my hair!
To my publisher Natalie who has helped with so much since our first meeting. I hope you're proud of me. Take what I said when I first met you: I'm going to make you proud. Thanks for believing in me and pushing me towards this.
To my parents, Byron and Ella, for always encouraging me. Thank you for all your support over the years with my writing and sending me to college. You always taught me I could be whoever I wanted to be and thankfully I became the woman you're so proud of.
To my brother and partner in crime, Mike. No matter what I did you always tried to understand, even if it didn't make any sense to you. I knew I could count on you. Go get 'em.
Hanna, Spencer and Emily…we did it! You guys are like my sisters. We've been through so much. I'm so thankful for all the support, advice and friendship you guys have given me. We would not have been able to come out alive without each other.
And last but not least, Ezra. My soul mate, my best friend and my husband. What would I do without you? You've been there for me during the hardest times and the best times. Who would've thought we'd be here today? I can't even begin to describe how much I love you. Thanks for the support, the love, and the advice. This book is obviously a byproduct of you and me. So much of you is written inside the lines. I'm so grateful.
