“Right. If you’re not going home today, why don’t you come to my place for dinner? I think I’m having a party.”
“You’re not sure?”
“At the moment I’m sure of a lot of things.” I linked my arm through Alan’s and smiled up at him. “But not what I’m having for dinner.”
“I’d like that. I’ll buy a salad or something.”
“I don’t think that’ll be necessary,” Alan said. “Around here, food means love. And Merry has a lot of love in her life.”
Thanks as always go to the cozy community for embracing Merry and Mattie and all the gang, as they do with so many other wonderful characters. Your enthusiasm keeps us writing. And to all the fabulous cozy reviewers and bloggers who help get the word out: you know who you are, and I thank you.
I’d also like to thank my agent, Kim Lionetti, whom I couldn’t live without, and Miranda Hill, my marvelous editor at Penguin Random House, for her belief in this series.
