I will never tire of editorial letters that demand more and more kissing scenes, and I’m so excited you brought me along with you to HarperCollins! Director credit to my agent, Holly Root, who keeps me sane(ish). I’m so lucky to have a supporting cast and crew of treasured CPs: Gail Nall, Alison Cherry, Deanna Romito—a ginormous thank-you for helping this book take shape in so many ways I couldn’t even list them. Post-production credits galore to the entire team at Harper, especially production editor Bethany Reis and copy editor Jessica White (whose knowledge of European travel details is bizarrely wonderful), designer Kate Engbring, and the entire Epic Reads team for teaching the world how fandom is done right. Research and development credit to my past coworkers at 20th Century Fox, Miramax Films, and Allied IM. I landed my former job as a movie publicist when my predecessor fell for her mega-movie-star client and vacated the position—sometimes truth is stranger than fiction.
