A pending divorce. An estranged child. Eden Miller, a 45-year old realtor, finds her life crumbling, her heart broken, and her ego bruised—
Until a chance glance at the Facebook page of her senior-year college crush has her sending him a friend request—
Which is answered.
And so it begins. A passionate communication with the sexiest man she’s ever known, who, it seems, is also soon to be single.
Is it too good to be true?
Best-selling author Samantha M. Bailey’s latest thriller, A FRIEND IN THE DARK, isn’t just a rollercoaster of passion and deception, but a deep dive into the psyche of a woman whose hope for a new start comes at a big price: one that may cost her everything.
Samantha and I discuss how she conceived such a vulnerable protagonist, how she ratchets up the tension for Eden, and how Samantha has honed the reputation for delivering thrillers about women whose trusting natures allow others to infiltrate their world with the intent to destroy their lives.
Check out Samantha M. Bailey's latest novel, the mystery A FRIEND IN THE DARK, in Amazon now.

Meredith Schorr - SOMEONE JUST LIKE YOU

Then, in the most hilarious ways, she ratchets up Jude and Molly’s almost-life-long animosity, which feeds the heat of their mutual attraction. By hitting all our hot buttons—family secrets, loyalty in friendships, and the lifelong regrets created by our worst impulsive acts—Schorr creates the perfect storm for a passion that can’t be ignored. The payoff: a redemption that must be earned before her readers can savor Molly and Jude’s happily-ever-after.
