All Summer Long

Susan Mallery

To the one who makes every writing day wonderful. You keep me company, tell me every page is brilliant and remind me

it’s always a good idea to stop every now

and then and take a well-deserved nap.

To my own little princess. My sweet Nikki.

Also, a special thank-you to Bill Buchanan for all the technical help on the volunteer firefighters. He was brilliant, and any mistakes in this story are mine. (Yes, Bill, you really do have to share the dedication page

with my poodle.)
