None of this would be any fun without my family alongside, including my hilarious, witty, and brilliant sister, Lisa Gable Wheatley, and my smart, fun, Chargers-loving brother, Brian Gable. Thank you to my dad, Tom Gable, for always inspiring me and cheering me on, and of course my mother, Laura Gable, to whom this book is dedicated. How do you thank one person for … everything? Thanks also go to Bill and Suzy Gable for hawking my books to patients and friends alike.
To my husband, Dennis Bilski, who keeps everything running. I always joke that if you made the slightest change to your schedule or availability, the entire system would shut down. Thanks for all you do for me, for our girls, and for making me the luckiest girl in the world.
To my spunky, smart, sporty daughters, Paige and Georgia. Thanks for being the easiest kids to raise. Sweet, independent, and responsible. That’s why I get so much done.
I learned many things when my first book came out, my favorite was seeing firsthand just how awesome other people are. Thank you not only to my friends but also readers nationwide who showed up at my signings. I’ll never be able to express what it means to meet you all in person. I’m also extraordinarily grateful for every reader’s note sent my way. I’ve saved each one. I hope you all love the second book as much as the first.
And, finally, I want to close these thanks in memory of my beloved grandmother, Carol Gable, a woman so interesting that even in her final days she still had new stories to tell.
