“I really did scare you, didn’t I?”
Edgar asked, wrapping an arm around her. “Your heart is beating like crazy.”
Dee pushed herself away from him as she inhaled the scent of his spicy aftershave. “I’ve just been…” She couldn’t tell him she’d been reading about him. Let alone daydreaming about working together.
“You were just what?” He studied her intently. “Are you sure you’re okay, Dee?”
She tried to shake it off. Between the phone call she’d received and feeling that someone had followed her into the library…and thinking about Edgar, there were plenty of things to be shaken up about.

CAROL STEWARD
To Carol Steward, selling a book is much like riding a roller coaster—every step of the process, every sale brings that exhilarating high. During the less exciting times, she’s busy gathering ideas and refilling her cup. Writing brings a much-needed balance to her life, as she has her characters share lessons she has learned, as well.
When she’s not working at the University of Northern Colorado, you can usually find her spending time with her husband of over thirty years, writing and thanking God she survived raising her own three children to reap His rewards of playing with her adorable grandchildren.
Throughout all the different seasons of life, God has continued to teach Carol to turn to Him. She has also learned to simplify her life and appreciate her many blessings—His gift of creativity, sharing her love for God with readers and setting an example of what God can do when we say, “Yes, God, take me, shape me, use me.” To find out more about Carol’s slightly crazy life and her books, visit her Web site at www.carolsteward.com.

QUESTIONS FOR DISCUSSION
ONE
Something had to be wrong. The caller ID showed her sister’s number, and Lauren knew not to call her at work.
“Deandra Owens, how may I help you?” she answered out of habit. “Sorry, Lauren. What’s up?”
“It’s happening again, Dee. There’s another warning on the Web site.”
Dee hadn’t heard Lauren this frantic in weeks.
“Log on the site, now,” her sister demanded. “Hurry!”
Dee swung her chair to the computer and moved her mouse to pull up the site. “Magnolia Falls: Where Are They Now?” scrolled to the top of the computer monitor and the photograph from the reunion began to load. “Where?”
“Someone put a picture of the group at the reunion on there,” Lauren said.
“I did,” Dee said with a sigh of relief.
“Yes, on the home page, but, it’s in the blog now—with flames burning over it.”
“You can’t be serious!” Her mind raced to the angry posts they’d received in the guest book. Dee stared as the blog loaded, her pulse racing. She scrolled through the comments, then came to the digitally altered photo posted by Anonymous and gasped. “Who would do this?”
“The police never even figured out who sent that entry last month.”
Dee looked for some clue, ignoring her sister.
“The one telling us that someone on campus isn’t who they seem to be.”
“Yes, I remember,” Dee said. “I’m—”
The fear in Lauren’s voice returned. “We have to do something.”
The police hadn’t given the Web site much attention, claiming pranks and inappropriate postings were pretty common on any public site. Dee stared at the photo in disbelief. Who would have such anger toward those at the reunion?
“Dee…”
“Where are you, Lauren?”
“I’m at Seth’s with Jake. Seth has a late appointment today.”
Lauren had had enough scares in the recent months. Dee didn’t want to see it start all over again. “Stay put and lock the doors.” Dee looked up to see, Edgar Ortiz, the assistant director of admissions in her doorway, pointing at his watch. “Thanks for calling.
