Acknowledgments

Special thanks to Beckie Ugolini, for her support, friendship and the idea for Brock’s bear suit.

Also, thanks to Meg Benjamin, my writing friend, RWA roommate and awesome critique partner.

As always, I owe a debt of gratitude to my fantastic agent, Elizabeth Winick. And I’m blessed

with the best editors in the world,

Rachel Burkot and Melissa Endlich.

Thank you to my loving and supportive family.

Thank you to the people of Alaska

and the Iditarod Trail Dog Sled Race for a bottomless well of inspiration: Emil Churchin,

Hugh Neff, Deby Trosper, Kate Swift and

especially Zoya DeNure, for giving me the

“the odds are good, but the goods are odd” line.

And Silvia Furtwaengler for giving me the ride

of my life at Iditarod 2012.

Thank you to Elizabeth Chambers and everyone

at Bird Bakery, for giving me a fun place to write and for the many, many cupcakes.

And last but not least, thank you

Wendy Pohlhammer for creating the pattern

for Brock’s hat and for doing the impossible—teaching me how to knit.
