Thank you, Martha Trachtenberg, for your thorough copyediting, and Tiffani Drake for swatting away pesky errors that would have driven us both nuts.

Baba and Jen Berg, I continue to be so thankful for your time, perceptiveness, and honesty-not to mention your steadfast love for Liv and Dean.

Yesi Cavazos, Debbie Kagan, and Maria D., your feedback is invaluable to me, and I so appreciate your time, honesty, and enduring support. Really, when do I get to hug you in person? Big ole squishy hugs. You've been warned.

Thank you so very much, all my blogger and reader friends who have been so loyal and supportive, even when I haven't had anything to give back. And many continued thanks to the awesome crew over at Nina's Ninjas. You all kept my b.u.t.t in the chair until the stories started flowing again.

end.
