  4. Jennifer - No need to thank me...the book was truly wonderful so thank YOU! I stumbled upon it when I got a Kindle as an early Christmas gift and saw it was free. I downloaded it and I'm so glad I did! I've been telling all my fellow reader friends about what a pleasure it was to read your book. I can't wait to read more of your work! Congrats...I think you have a real hit on your hands with Fireflies!
