Flame in the Mist

  To Marie Lu and Carrie Ryan for being constant sources of love and support. I always leave our times together wishing we could hang out more.

  To my assistant, Sarah Weiss: thank you for making sure I dot every i and cross every t with your signature style and grace.

  To Brita Lundberg, Heather Baror-Shapiro, and the wonderful team at IGLA: thank you for all your endless work and unceasing professionalism.

  To Sabaa: every seven I see, I thank the stars for you.

  To Elaine: there are no words to express how much your friendship has meant to me. Through the good and the not-so-good, you have always been my light on the distant shore.

  To my family: my siblings—Erica, Ian, Chris, and Izzy—thank you for your love and support. Here’s to many more years of celebrating nothing and everything as only we can do. To my parents—Umma, Mama Joon, Baba Joon, and Dad—thank you for a lifetime of love and guidance.

  To Omid, Julie, Navid, Jinda, Evelyn, Isabelle, Andrew, Ella, and Lily: thank you for being there through every joyful event and for weathering any storm in the best way possible: together.

  And to Vic: It doesn’t matter what path we take up the mountain. It only matters that you are there with me.
