Single
She’s single and not interested in dating. Sheena Gaskin hasn’t had a romantic relationship in over a decade and isn’t planning to have one now. Now she, along with her devoted dog, are making a fresh start—relocating to a Fort Worth, Texas, suburb and leaving family drama behind. A quick scan of a few familiar Facebook profiles reveals her peers celebrating major milestones like wedding anniversaries and sending kids off to college. But the never-married Sheena finds contentment and peace being single.
He’s single and dating. Linton Oliver has most everything he’s ever wanted, except a life companion. He’s a fiftysomething, controversial YouTube star who’s dealing with a persistent cancel culture. He still carries around bitterness from his divorce years ago, but he hasn’t given up on finding his better half. And his neighbor Sheena has caught his eye.
Sheena insists she’s happy, and Linton contends his life needs someone else to share it with. Linton knows exactly what’s missing from his life, and Sheena can’t quite put her finger on the something—or someone—missing from hers.

Review:
"Single" by Cheryl Robinson
My Assessment:
"Single" was just what the title was about...with Sheena Gaskin, 52 years old, only wanting to be single. Now, why was this? As the story goes, Sheena had many obstacles in her life that presented many problems ...for one thing finding out she suffered from agoraphobia...the same as her mother. Then there were issues with her sister[Danielle], her childhood school friend[Krishell], and let's add a childhood boyfriend[Linton Oliver]. So, you may say the only thing she had in her life was her devoted dog...Shadow. Oh, I will tell you that through it all, after her move to Texas, Sheena finds a brother she never knew she had...I will stop saying you must get the rest of this good story by picking up the read.
Be prepared for many twists and turns in the story as the story goes back to her childhood and what was now going on with her life as she relocates to Fort Worth, Texas. Will this move bring her happiness as she meets up with her two childhood friends?
The reader will have to pick up...not wanting to tell too much of this well-written story. However, by the end, will Sheena find contentment and peace in being single, or will someone be trying to get her to change her mind?
Thank you to the author for giving me this good read and my giving my honest opinion of 'Single.'

A little bit of Eccentric love
Depending on how you look at Sheena you might think she’s strange but I’d rather offer her grace and call her eccentric.
She has embraced the word “single” to the utmost and she lets everyone know her status so much so she has built what appears to be an impenetrable wall.
Enter Linton Oliver a man’s man with his own demons and desires that Sheena help him to realize. Reminiscing on their friendship from high school Linton realizes he let THE ONE get away. Now he is on a quest to gain her trust and get things set right.
With her eccentric ways will Sheena give in? Will Linton give up. Single was a really good read about friendships lost and rekindled, bitter family relationships looking for a dollop of sugar.
Robinson is one of my favorite story tellers because she can pace a story in such a way where you want it to move along BUT not end.
You did it again sister!!!!
