Let me know.
Love,

I reread the letter, then put it in an envelope and seal it. It’s not much, but it’s a start. And if there’s anything I’ve learned lately, it’s that everyone deserves a fresh start and a second chance. I lean back in my seat and wait for everyone else to finish.
Acknowledgments
Thank you, thank you, thank you to:
Molly McGuire, for taking this book all the way to Atlanta with her, and for her fabulous editorial guidance.
Kate Angelella, for taking over with such enthusiasm, and not laughing at me when I told her the story of how I almost-not-really became a soccer player.
Alyssa Eisner Henkin, for being everything I’ve ever wanted in an agent, and never being too busy to give me fab NYC restaurant suggestions.
My mom, for always being there no matter what, and setting an example for the kind of person I want to be.
My dad, for reading every single one of my books, even though he’s totally not my target audience.
Krissi and Kelsey, for making me laugh, being the best sisters anyone could ask for, and making me proud of the young women they’re becoming.
Kevin Cregg, for putting up with my craziness on an almost-daily basis for the past eleven years.
My new in-laws, the Gorvines, for being a “reading family” and always getting excited about my books.
My grandparents, for being proud of me and bragging about my books to everyone and anyone who will listen.
And most of all, everyone who read The Secret Identity of Devon Delaney and sent me an e-mail or Myspace message to let me know they loved it. You guys are awesome!
