First and foremost, I am extremely indebted to Jonathon McNey for helping me build Kit’s world from day one, being willing to read an extraordinary number of drafts, and in all other ways allowing me to monopolize his time. Some of the crucial details of this story would be missing without the help of my amazing friend and fellow writer, Linda Peterson, and I am so grateful for her keen insights and enthusiastic dedication to this project. Emily McNey, Claire Buys, Jenny Frodsham, Jennifer Shepard, Suzanne Tanner, Susan Bromley, Liz McNey, Kaye Robison, and Kevin Robison, thank you all so much for your encouragement and suggestions. The wonderful feedback you gave me blew me away. A big thanks to Vince McNey and the folks at McNey Creative for the fabulous cover art and graphics—I am hugely grateful for your collaboration. Finally, I want to thank my phenomenal husband for being my committed partner in every step of this crazy journey. I couldn’t have done this without you. Much love to you all!

Katie Robison earned her bachelor’s degree in English and French from Brigham Young University and is currently working toward a Ph.D. in medieval and early modern literature at the University of Minnesota.

She and her husband live just outside Minneapolis.
