Girl in Disguise

Thanks to the amazing Shana Drehs at Sourcebooks, whose keen editorial guidance and commitment to publishing the best possible book are equally impressive and appreciated. Sourcebooks has managed to pull together a huge team of brilliant, committed, hardworking individuals who also happen to be warm, fun people and are a pleasure to spend time with. Just a few of those I’m thrilled to work with include Dominique Raccah, Lathea Williams, Heidi Weiland, Stephanie Graham, Heather Hall, Sabrina Baskey, Carolyn Lesnick, Valerie Pierce, Sara Hartman-Seeskin, and Adrienne Krogh.

Thanks to the many amazing writers whose friendship, insight, feedback, and enthusiasm keep me going in the tough times and share in the celebration when news is good. There are too many to name, but I’m fortunate to walk this road with gems like Robb Cadigan, Stephanie Feuer, Pam Jenoff, Tracey Kelley, Kenneth Kraus, Allie Larkin, Ariel Lawhon, Sarah McCoy, Shelley Nolden, Camille Pagán, Rick Spilman, Erika Robuck, Michelle Von Euw, Therese Walsh, and Heather Webb, as well as the Fiction Writers’ Co-op and the Tall Poppy Writers.

Thanks to the indie booksellers who play such an important role in getting books they love into the hands of readers who need them. Your excitement and dedication is absolutely inspiring to see.

Thanks to my family, especially my husband, Jonathan, whose unflagging support of my writing is essential, not only to my career, but also my happiness. Because of you, I’m lucky enough to have both.

Last but not least, I want to express my boundless gratitude to all the readers out there. This wouldn’t be worth it without you.
