ONLINE ROMANCE—AND DOOM

Ex–television journalist Ali Reynolds just wants a break from excitement to remodel her new home. But when the savagely murdered body of stay-at-home mom Morgan Forester is found, Ali’s contractor Bryan is the prime suspect. Bryan swears he has nothing to do with his wife’s murder—but as the investigation progresses, Ali seems to be the only person who believes him. Determined to prove Bryan’s innocence, she logs onto singleatheart.com, a dating site for "married singles," and unknowingly lands herself directly in the path of a calculating killer. Ali races to decode the actions of a vengeful computer hacker . . . before he uses his wicked website to find her.

When people of a certain age find themselves back in the dating game, it's only to be expected that they turn to some of the Internet dating sites. Some of those Internet-based romances work out; others don't.  Sometimes the ones that don't make for the best stories. And it's no accident that Ali is remodeling a house in this book.  Bill and I have been married for 27 years. We started our first live-in remodel when we had been married less than a month. We're currently doing at work on home-remodeling project # 7, this one due to having had 80,000 gallons of water leak into the master bathroom and crawlspace while we were out of town. When it comes to remodeling projects, I happen know whereof I speak.
