Mary: Clover Springs Mail Order Brides 2

by Rachel Wesson

Acknowledgments

  This book wouldn’t have been possible without the help of so many people. In particular I would like to thank authors Cindy Caldwell, Ashley Merrick and Leighann Dobbs for encouraging a girl from Dublin to fulfill her dream of writing about the old West. Kirsten Osborne deserves a special mention, for not accepting any excuses when I complained about getting the book done!

  Thanks to Erin Dameron-Hill for my fantastic covers. Erin is a gifted artist who makes my characters come to life. My incredible editors, Cissie Patterson and Cindy Caldwell, without whom this book wouldn’t shine.

  The ladies from Pioneer Hearts who volunteered to proofread my book. Special thanks go to Nancy Cowan, Marlene Larsen, Janet Lessley, Cindy Nipper and Denise Cervantes who all spotted errors (mine) that had slipped through.

  Kirsten Osborne, Cassie Hayes and the incredible group of people who make up Pioneer Hearts, a Facebook group for authors and readers of Historical Western Romance. Come join us for games, prizes, exclusive content, and first looks at the latest releases of your favorite historical western authors. https://www.facebook.com/groups/pioneerhearts/

  Last, but by no means least, huge thanks and love to my husband and three children. My kids know when Mom is in the middle of a book dinner may be late, burnt or, as is often the case, both. Clothes may be hard to find and the house may look like it was burglarized.
