  I pushed open the front door. BeBe galloped toward me. I heard the phone ringing above the sound of my pounding heart.

  BeBe and I two-stepped to the coffee table. I grabbed the phone, dislodged the dog, and pushed the Talk button before I had a chance to look at the caller ID or catch my breath.

  "Hello?"

  "Nina?"

  It was a woman's voice, one I didn't recognize. "Yes?"

  "This is Ginger Barlow." She paused, then said, "Kevin's been shot."

  Acknowledgments

  A big thanks to Sarah Durand, my fabulous editor, for pushing me to push myself. Thanks, too, to the whole Avon staff for all the hard work they do behind the scenes.

  Thanks and hugs to Jacky Sach, agent extraordinaire.

  Huge thanks to my critique group, Shelley Galloway, Cathy Liggett, Julie Stone, and author-in-waiting Hilda Lindner Knepp, for everything. Thank you to Laura Bradford for her continuous cheerleading, keen eyes, and honesty. And a very special thanks to Sharon Short for being a great roomie, brainstorming genius, and road-trippin' buddy. You guys are the best.
