  Because it has to.

  ACKNOWLEDGMENTS

  This book owes its allegiance to an array of people. My mother, with her eternal patience and happiness. My sister, and her everlasting desire to challenge herself. My tenth grade English teacher, Mrs. Hall, and the love of literature she passed on to me.

  Brooks, who introduced me to a writing workshop and encouraged me to do more than let my pages sit in a document on my computer. My amazing friends, who read overnight and took me to lunch at Cafeteria—Meredith and the Sara(h)s, you’re amazing.

  Everyone at Balzer + Bray and HarperCollins, who believed in Janelle and Ben and their story. Especially my editor, Kristin Daly Rens, who took what was essentially the skeleton of a novel and showed me how to make it whole, and Sara Sargent, whose excitement made me slightly less nervous about seeing my words out in the world.

  My agent, Janet Reid, whose expertise and advice was—and continues to be—invaluable, and for refusing to let time goblins get the best of her.

  And Dan … for *getting* it. All the texts, all the emails, all the late-night, last-minute phone calls. For the reliability and dealing with crazy. For letting his brilliance rub off. For. Every. Thing.
