Two people responded to my request to proof this book. Debra H responded 
first, and so, I contacted her, letting her know that I would submit the 
book with a hold for her, when it was ready. Several days later, I saw that 
Debbie F. was looking for it, but I never received notice that she was 
interested.

Debra H. is currently proofing the Diplomat's Wife, so all is well with it.

In a perfect world the  scanner would  see your note and send you back a 
note that he/she'll put a hold on it for you, but the safest thing is to 
reply to directly to the scanner and ask him/her to put a hold for on the 
book for you.
