I always look forward to a new Megan Hart book and Stranger was well worth the wait for me. Dan and Elle from Dirty make an appearance as well as pretty pierced tattooed Jack.

Grace deals with the pain and sorrow of others every day at the funeral home that she owns. She never wants to feel that loss or pain so she "rents" companionship rather than having a real relationship. That is until she meets Sam one night in a bar, who she mistakenly thinks is one of her paid companions. She finds out differently right after their hot encounter and even though she thinks she will never see him again since he truly was a stranger, they cross paths once again when Grace handles the services for his deceased father. Grace hasn't been able to forget him and Sam's determined to chip away at the walls that she has put up to protect her heart.

As usual with Megan's work I couldn't put this book down. And even though the book had my "hoped for" happy ending, when I finished I had such jumbled thoughts and feelings that I was left a little melancholy. I always have to sorta let the book sink in for a few days before I'm ready to pick up something else to read. For me, when an author makes that kind of emotional impact on a person they are truly gifted!
