ACKNOWLEDGMENTS. Thank you to my beautiful husband and children, for being patient with me while I sat down and lost myself in this story

Thank you to my beautiful husband and children, for being patient with me while I sat down and lost myself in this story. Without your support, I could not move a pen. I love you!

And to my parents, for patiently spending days and weeks without hearing from me and still loving me. I love you both so much and I promise I’ll be better about calling.

To Adam Wilson—Adam, I don’t know how you managed to get married to the love of your life while managing to edit and put Mine out on time for the readers, but you deserve a red cape and I have no words to thank you for all you do for me.

To Amy Tannenbaum, who is there for me through thick and thin, always with invaluable advice and a helping hand. Another red cape to you!

To my amazing publisher at Gallery Books, Jennifer Bergstrom, and to Lauren McKenna, two fine ladies I only recently met and can’t wait to meet again. Thank you for being Team Katy too! To Jules, Kristin, and Enn, the best PR team I could ever have; I’m blessed to work with you. To my copy editor, for the fantastic suggestions and also for forgiving me when I get stubborn and want to leave my sentence raw. To Sarah Hansen for another kick-ass cover—your talent knows no bounds. To my proofreaders at Gallery, and to Anita Saunders, thank you for spotting all the little details I can no longer see and for helping to make it shine.

To my author friends who read, suggest, cheer, and support. Writing is a lonely business and you get so much more done when you have understanding friends who can push you through a little hump!

To Kati Brown, you deserve special thanks and love from me. Your input on this book was golden. Thank you, Kati!

To all the bloggers who Real introduced me to, I can’t even explain how much I appreciate you!

To Dana and the Scaries, you are treasured by me! Dana, you are PRECIOUS!

And especially, to everyone who has suffered, or suffers, from any form or shape of mental illness, and to anyone whose loved one suffers from any form or shape of mental illness, I do believe there is light in the dark, and I hope you find yours.

Friends, author friends, bloggers, and readers. Thank you for loving Brooke and Remy like I do.

Xoxoxox!
