Swoon Reads blog-related; and Brittany Pearlman, for all your help and hard work with marketing and publicity.

Janet and Bob Bischer, my parents, who very kindly bought their then-broke-ish daughter the laptop the first draft of this book was originally written on. I’m glad it churned out something more meaningful than salty Yankees tweets and cat-photo-centric Facebook posts.

Kenneth Wert, a genius plotter and the very first believer in this book, who, upon hearing the plot for it back in 2009 was like, “That’s going to get published!” It took longer than we thought, but it happened, and that confidence gave me confidence to keep going. Long live our “Newport Days”!

Micol Ostow and my fellow writers in her spring 2010 YA novel-writing workshop, where this story officially began on page. And the biggest of thanks to the critique group that grew out of that class—“The Rogues,” a wise, witty, incredibly talented group of writers who are essentially this book’s godmothers and have been there every step of this saga: Linda Blum, Joanne Donovan, Nancy Lambert, Danielle Rumore Lundquist, and Fiona Taylor.

Alyssa Reuben, whose insights helped the first draft become a solid foundation for what exists now.

My very first “readers”: Laura Carney, Rachel Chang, Aimee Leinhardt, and Courtney Pressler, whose requests to see my first draft made me feel like a “real” writer.

My friends and coworkers who have been have been stalwart champions of this book, my unofficial therapists when working through book-related challenges, and also so understanding when socializing has to take a backseat to writing/editing/rewriting: Erica Brown, Amy Dolan, Dexter Gasque, Claire Goncalves, Rana Meyer, Vicki Obe, Stephanie Sloane, and Tonya Trudo.

The Swoon Squad, who have been an absolutely vital source of useful information and support. I’m so glad we have each other!

And, finally, the Swoon Readers who vocalized their love for this book with votes or comments. This book doesn’t get to the point of needing an acknowledgements section without you, and I’m not sure I’ll ever be able to convey my thanks for that enough.
