  Acknowledgments
  
  
  As always, I’m grateful to all agents, editors, and authors who share online
  about the writing and publishing process. A special thanks to those who worked
  closely with me on this brand-new series: my amazing agent Jill Marsal, my
  wonderful editor Faith Black Ross, and the entire talented crew at Crooked
  Lane Books, especially illustrator Brandon Dorman for the wonderfully festive
  cover.
  
  
  And, of course, to you, readers: thanks for picking up this Christmas story; I
  hope that it put festive cheer in your hearts and made you fall in love with
  the quirky inhabitants of small-town Heart’s Harbor. You’re warmly invited to
  join them again as Fourth of July celebrations bring an old celebrity
  disappearance back into the headlines and catapult Callie into a web of deceit
  and secrets that only persistence and help from friends can unravel.
