One Diamond Earring

One Diamond Earring (Book #1 in Diamond Earring series)

Tom Blanchard enjoyed life as a consulting engineer. Working and traveling to clients gave him direction, and kept him busy after the sudden death of his wife. What work did not give him, was opportunity to connect too closely socially. Let’s face it, the night clerk at the Courtside Inn probably knew him better than his occasional golf buddies. But that was fine at his age—or it was, until the night a distraught Ann Harris entered the Inn’s lobby, escorted by police. Something about her composure in the midst of being stranded caught his attention. Sympathy—and practicality, of course—prompt him to offer her his hotel room and a ride for the several hundred miles home. With seemingly nothing to lose, Ann accepts both. But there is something to lose—something she’s carefully constructed and vehemently protected.

Surrounded by the entertaining characters of their “senior set”, Tom and Ann face the challenge of starting a new chapter.
