Thirty-Two Going On Spinster (The Spinster Series Book 1)

by Becky Monson

  “Yes. I must have you there by my side on what will probably be the most important day of my life.” She bit her bottom lip and stared down at her ring.

  “Of course I will be.” I grabbed her hand and held it briefly, letting her know how much that meant to me.

  For the past two months, I have put on a brave face during this torture. But today, here in this stuffy dressing room—well, it’s not actually stuffy because it’s ridiculously huge, but it has a stuffy feel to it—I’m just not feeling it.

  “Julia?” my mom says, a little louder than her normal tone. I look over at her and she and Anna are both staring at me.

  “Yeah?” I say, realizing I have not been paying attention to them at all.

  “You ready to go?” She comes over to me and stands next to the place where I am sitting.

  Oh yes, I am definitely ready to go.

  ACKNOWLEDGMENTS

  I must give shout-outs to Lori Schleiffarth, my sister and greatest friend, for helping me edit along the way and telling me when I was being a complete idiot (in a loving way).

  Robin Huling for being the best cheerleader and BFF a girl could ask for. I would not have finished this if she hadn’t pushed me (gently, of course).

  Nikki Sanders, my BCF (Best Cousin Friend) for editing and giving great advice and making me laugh all the time.

  Julie Dirks, for her hilarious stories which inspired me to bring Julia to life. And no, it’s not a coincidence that their names are similar. We didn’t become spinsters like we thought we would! Yippee!

  Prascilla Park, Sarah Sutliff, Kelly Glave, and Molly Rosenlund for reading the less edited versions, and still cheering me on.

  Brad Condie, for my amazing cover art. You are one talented guy.

  My mom, also a writer (much better than I am), and my dad, a comedian. I hope to be like them when I grow up.

  My other siblings (Dan, Jenny, Carol) who inspire me and support me. My extended family who are some of my most favorite people in the world.

  My immediate family. My babies: Audrey, Max, and Violet. And Rob, who saved me from my future life as a spinster. I love you tons and tons.
