The Hunter (32 page)
This book was written under the crossfire of Charlie, Jeanne, Ivan and Francis.
Special thanks to Maria “HoF” Hammon and Melissa Copeland, two operators navigating the no-man’s-land of my mind; the sea mammals that taught me swimming isn’t all about floating; Erika Tsang, my editor, who panicked through four hurricanes with me; and Liz Trupin-Pulli, my agent, the best huntress out there!
And always, the ladies at Delphi TDD, especially Sandy “Sadista” Still, Mirmie Caraway, Karen King, Angela Swanson, Teena Weena Smith, and Katherine Lazo, the most supportive BSHes in the world.
Thank you RBL Romantica for all your support!
