I’m so full of happiness I can hardly think straight. “Yeah.”

Lexi squeals again. “I want to help plan it! Are you going to make your dress? What colors do you think you want? What’s your favorite flower? ”

I laugh and glance at Reed. “I think you’re going to have your hands full for the next six months or so.”

He leans over and gives me a kiss. “I wouldn’t have it any other way.”

Acknowledgments

They say that writing is a lonely profession, but I seem to find myself surrounded by people. There’s no way I could write and publish a book on my own.

Thank you to Trisha Leigh, my critique partner and biggest supporter. I couldn’t do this without her support.

Thank you to my beta readers: Rhonda Cowsert, Anne Childon, and Becky Podjenski—you’re insight and support was invaluable.

Thank you to two readers who won a contest and named characters: Lysa Lessieur who named Lexi, and Claire Taylor who named Brandon. I love when I have readers name characters, dork that I am.

A huge, huge thanks to the real mathematician Dr. Donald Knuth, who not only gave me permission to use his name in conjunction with Caroline’s gift to Reed, but also conversed with me via mail. I am not a math person (understatement of the year) but became a total Donald Knuth fangirl.

And as always, thank you to my children for loving and supporting me with this crazy life. I’ve never been happier.

About the Author

Denise Grover Swank was born in Kansas City, Missouri and lived in the area until she was nineteen. Then she became a nomadic gypsy, living in five cities, four states and ten houses over the course of ten years before she moved back to her roots. She speaks English and smattering of Spanish and Chinese which she learned through an intensive Nick Jr. immersion period. Her hobbies include witty Facebook comments (in own her mind) and dancing in her kitchen with her children. (Quite badly if you believe her offspring.) Hidden talents include the gift of justification and the ability to drink massive amounts of caffeine and still fall asleep within two minutes. Her lack of the sense of smell allows her to perform many unspeakable tasks. She has six children and hasn’t lost her sanity.

Or so she leads you to believe.
