My UK editor, Wayne Brookes at Pan Macmillan, is always a joy to work with. I’m grateful for his constant support and all the behind-the-scenes work he—and everyone else at Pan Macmillan—do to get my books into the hands of my UK readers.
Finally, thank you to my readers around the world. Through your kind words and enthusiasm, you always encourage me to write the story that entices me. I hope you’ve enjoyed this trip through time with The Dream Daughter.
