The Man Next Door

**"Ellen James writes with warmth, wit and style. I look forward to each new book."--Debbie Macomber****Michael Turner is the man next door and he's got problems!**He's an ex-cop turned P.I., who's pretending to be a writer.His partner--normally the most rational of women--is pretending she's pregnant.His eleven-year-old son--whom he loves--isn't pretending anything, but then, the boy's barely talking to him.His father--whom he loathes (no pretense here)--is back in town.And to top it all, he's becoming dangerously attracted to the woman next door, a woman he's been paid investigate, a woman who just might be pretending that she *hasn't* murdered her husband.
