Acknowledgments
Pulling the first plot ideas from my head is a lot like pulling teeth—painful tugs, with much kicking and screaming from the patient. Diane Lutz, Patti Shenberger, and Cheryl Anne Smith always let me whine through those early days, and never flinch when I needed to brainstorm. I owe a special thank-you on this book to Philine Tucker, who forced me to describe each character’s deepest fears and desires, then wrote it all down for me and made me believe I actually had an organized story line. Cal and Maggie came to life partly because of her.
Thanks also to Andy Cohoe and Kyria Joyner, who spent many years living in the Rockies and helped fill in the gaping holes in my experience. Any mistakes are my own.
