Special thanks to the Brainstorm Troopers for your help with Gabriel. I think it was Anne Mallory who suggested I make him a “servant! A really badass servant!” Nothing like the idea of a badass footman to propel me to start writing.
Thanks to the Shananigans for your support, especially Sarah Rosenbarker and Sue Gorman for your suggestions and comments on the first draft.
Thanks to Abby Saul for your fabulous copyediting and to Theresa Romain for your help with French. Any mistakes are completely and utterly mine.
Thanks to Kim Killion for our gorgeous cover.
And thank you to Vanessa Kelly, Anna Campbell, and Kate Noble who agreed to participate in this project without the least hesitation. You three have been a joy to work with. I’d do it again in a second.
