Table of Contents

ACKNOWLEDGMENTS
Special thanks to acquisitions editor Margaret Wolf for her encouragement, patience, and wonderful editing, and to Joan Matthews for copyediting the manuscript. Undying gratitude to Francine Hornberger and Christine Marie, without their editorial skills and timely assistance this book would never have been finished. Heartfelt thanks to Jay, for always cooking and never complaining, to Liz, for her support, optimism, and babysitting, and to Isabelle, just for being wonderful.
ABOUT THE EDITOR
Shawna Mullen is a writer and editor. She lives in Beverly Farms, Massachusetts, with her husband and daughter. She would most like to resemble Elizabeth Bennet from Pride and Prejudice, but fears she is more like Lydiaa flirt in the worst and meanest degree of flirtation.... Vain, ignorant, idle, and absolutely uncontrolled!
