Love At First Ink: A Woodbine Valley Romance (Tate Family Book 1) Read online

  I’m going to try really, really hard to get this right because this book simply wouldn’t have been published without an amazing and supportive group of awesome humans who gave me help, support, and advice when I needed it the most.

  First, to my writing-related mailing list subscribers, Heart Candy email subscribers, and Heart Candy Facebook group members. Your engagement and encouragement inspire me to share my stories. Thank you.

  To my beta readers, Melanie Hooyenga, Karen Akins, Jennie Booth, and Laura Haley. Thank you for helping make this story better.

  To my local writers, Laura Haley and Caryn Caldwell, for your friendship and for all those “writing” dates. I’m still amazed that we found each other (thanks, Caryn!) and am beyond grateful.

  To Elizabeth Briggs, for sharing your time and answering my never-ending publishing questions. Also for writing amazing books.

  To Molly and Daren for helping make this book a touch more southern. Any failures are entirely my fault. Y’all can blame me.

  To Steph Northwood for inspiring me to take my writing craft to new levels. For Heart Candy. And for the amazing snail mail at just the right moments.

  To Erin L. Schneider, for believing in me no matter which direction I choose to take. For epic video chats and those first (four-hour) coffee dates.

  To my family—near and far, extended and immediate. For your support and love. I am so lucky.

  To my parents. For putting books into my hands. For always, always supporting me. Your faith and love give me the courage to pursue my wildest dreams.

  To Molly. You believed in me when I needed it most. Thank you.

  To Brian. For everything.
