Stranger In Her Bed

by Bonnie Gardner

A slight case of mistaken identity… WELCOME HOME, ROBIN DIGBY…. Now, a few things have changed while you've been away. For instance, there's a perfect stranger—well, maybe not perfect, but pretty darn close—sleeping in your bed. But there's a good explanation for that. You see, everybody thinks you're dead…. Well, somebody with your name was murdered, and it looks as if whoever did it means to finish the job. And if you and T. J. Swift—the drop-dead-gorgeous guy you've suddenly found yourself living with—don't get to the bottom of this mystery, it could be too late for you both. And that would be a real shame—because your brand-new "roommate" is sexy enough to give any woman a reason to live….

Stranger In Her Bed by Bonnie Gardner was kind of bland and boring. A woman returns home after a two-month archeological dig to find someone else occupying her apartment telling her how the former roommate vacated after her other roommate was found dead.
Both don't want to leave, so they decide to stay there. Robin has a plan, after her divorce that does not include men and TJ is also studying and recovering after losing his family and then his injury when he served as a reservist(he's a former cop).
On to of that there is proving she's still alive.

I didn't connect with the book at all. Robin wants to find out who died as her and that is the mystery part.

This is an older book that it may be difficult for you to find, but it will be worth your while to find it. Ms. Gardner does a find job getting the reader to turn pages, but fast. The case of a young graduate student coming home to Tuscaloosa, AL from a summer archeology dig and finding a man, an unknown man, in her apartment was a news story in the 80's. Gardner takes the story and runs with it, interweaving a great romance between the student and the man in her apartment.

The love story/relationship between the two main characters was very good and made it a worthwhile read. It was the confusing name/dead-alive body mix-up which was poorly written that detracted from the story. I would consider the plotline not fully developed.
