Sheila Roberts: The Man Next Door, Gebunden

Blurb

Love in the Time of Serial Killers meets The Woman in the House Across the Street from the Girl in the Window in this delightful romp about a recently broke divorcée who moves in with her housebound mother only to spend their days spying on her grumpy, mysterious and sexy new neighbor.

Zona never thought her life was headed this way, but here she is, newly divorced and moving back in with her mom, Louise. After her ex-husband lost all of their savings gambling, including the money in their daughter's college fund, she doesn't really have a choice. She's cutting every coupon she can and she's going to help put her daughter through nursing school, even if it kills her. 

This wasn't Louise's plan, either, laid up at home with a broken leg after one unfortunate tumble on the senior singles cruise she'd been looking forward to for months. But if she's going to spend all her time at home, at least she's got her daughter there with her. And there's some hot new eye candy across the street to distract them both from their troubles. He appears to be single and just around Zona's age. Could his arrival be the universe making amends for everything it's put her through? 

Alec is just about as grumpy as he is goregeous, so maybe the universe isn't feeling as generous as Zona hoped. And who's the woman they can hear him in an all-out shouting match with one night? When the woman seems to disappear without a trace, and Louise sees Alec loading something big into his truck one night, imaginations run wild. Or at least Zona hopes it's just her mother's imagination…
