The Bride Thief

This book is dedicated to my editor,

Kara Cesare; editorial assistant, Liz Scheier; and to Nita Taublib, with my gratitude for their terrific ideas, hard work, and their unfailing kindness, support, and enthusiasm.

And, as always, to my incredible husband, Joe, the Thief who stole my heart; and my makes-me-so-proud son, Christopher, aka Thief Junior.
