Even Ed Starek is here to tip a glass to the newlyweds.
As the new husband and wife share a kiss, the roar of approval filters up through the autumn treetops and carries all the way to the lake. There, the waves continue their unceasing beat against the shore, as the lights of Chicago twinkle in the distance.

Author’s Note
In a sense, I’ve come home by writing this book. I grew up in Julia’s neighborhood, although not in a cottage like hers (our place more closely resembled Ed Starek’s house). The lake and the woods are just as I have depicted them here. But don’t go looking for the labyrinth, the ley line intersection, or Nokomis Trail, as all of them are my own invention.
It always takes a village to get a novel out the door, and Seasons has been no exception. My thanks this time go to Susan Strayer, my editor; Kat Milyko, my beta reader; Melody Stiles, who diagnosed Nina for me; Kriss Morton (no relation to Julia!), who created a new cover for this edition and ran the Kindle Scout marketing campaign, and did it all while sick with shingles; and the minions at Indies Unlimited, for help with whipping the blurb into shape, general moral support, and the best virtual gruel on teh intarwebz.
I’d be remiss if I didn’t also thank everybody who nominated Seasons at Kindle Scout. I am beyond grateful for your support, and I hope you’ve enjoyed reading the book as much as I enjoyed writing it. Please feel free to stop by my blog and my Facebook page and say hello, so I can thank you in (virtual) person.
If you enjoyed Seasons, won’t you please post a review? And please click here to sign up for my spam-free newsletter, so you can stay informed of new releases and special offers (because we all know how great Facebook is at keeping everyone up to date). Thank you!
