Dedication
I would like to take the time and thank all those who played a part in my life, from helping me grow as an author to making me see the world through an author's eye. Some of the best authors today have inspired me to finally break out of the realm of poetry and into the world of fiction. I would like to thank those authors now, although I have never met them their style of writing changed the way I think and read forever: Tracie Peterson - Land of My Heart, was the first book I read while I was on a journey to discovering Christ. I will never forget the assistance that book gave me to finding myself. Wanda E. Brunstetter - your books on the Amish are more than an adventure for me, they have taught me about another culture. Irene Hannon - my latest favorite, not only are your books inspiring, but they also have brought me to the conclusion that just doing a good job if your heart is not in it, is not good enough.
To my children Daya & Nathan Brown, you two have always been there for me, you have never given up on me, even when I wanted to give up.
To the remaining friends and family, thank you for the support, without you I would not be where I am today.
