Dedication
For Pam Callow, Julianne MacLean and Cathryn Fox – you ladies are the best!
And always, for John – sorry I couldn’t fit in a car chase. Maybe next time.
Acknowledgements
First and foremost, thank you to my family for their unequaled love and support, especially to my amazing husband, John, who never once looked at me askew when I told him I needed to spend the weekend at the coffee shop drinking copious amounts of caffeine and typing madly in order to make my deadlines.
To the tremendously awesome trio who supported me throughout this process – Pam Callow, Julianne MacLean and Cathryn Fox. For your unparalleled guidance and friendship, I thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you! You three never cease to amaze me with your kindness, brilliance and insight. I owe you a large chunk of my sanity.
Anne MacFarlane and Annette Gallant – thanks for keeping me on track. When I meet my goals, you have only yourselves to blame!
Deborah Hale – There’s a reason I say, ‘When in doubt, ask Deb.’ Thanks for answering my questions and providing your always sage advice. I bow to your greatness.
Nancy Cassidy – thanks for working with me through the editing process. I promise next time to never add an

To my faithful hound, Cedar – thanks for being, in equal parts, a complete clown, an overgrown lap dog, and a genuine teddy bear (in other words, the true embodiment of a golden retriever). All these things came in handy during the 5 am writing sessions.
And last, but not least, to the ladies who make up Romance Writers of Atlantic Canada. You gals rock!
About the Author
Kelly Boyce started writing in Grade 2 when her favorite teacher, Mrs. Matheson showed up with a box filled with plot ideas and she was hooked, but it wasn’t until she read Lisa Gregory’s Bitterleaf that she fell in love with historical romance.
It took several years after that however, before she discovered Romance Writers of America and Romance Writers of Atlantic Canada and realized how to take those stories, turn them into books and send them out into the big bad world. After that, it was full steam ahead.
A life-long Nova Scotian, she lives near the Atlantic Ocean with her awesome husband, a clownish golden retriever with a stubborn streak a mile wide, and her stepson.
She loves writing stories about relationships and creating a sense of community around the hero and heroine filled with secondary characters who take on a life of their own.
Her first release, a western historical, The Outlaw Bride, was released in 2011 by Carina Press and she has two more western historical romances coming in 2014/2015 with Harlequin Enterprises.
Books 2 and 3 in the Sins & Scandals Series are in the works for release in 2014.
