Ready-Made Bride

This book is dedicated to my brothers, Jay, Jeff and Kirk,

heroes in their own right. And to the women who put up

with them, Erin, Karen and Debbie, wonderful sisters

and extraordinary heroines.

And, as always, to my husband, Don, who gives new

meaning to the word hero. You continually amaze me

with your patience, belief and love. This wonderful

dream wouldn’t be possible without your support

and encouragement
