Life Goes On

Becky and Dan Jeffries had just arrived home from their honeymoon when Becky realized that at the age of thirty-nine she was pregnant. She'd lost several babies prematurely during her first marriage so this was a mixed blessing. Their lives change and Becky now works at home as a publishing editor. She discovers a new author that she's sure will be a winner and possibly have her book about a battered wife made into a movie.
She encourages the author to write two sequels to her first book. One of Dan's experiences on his job as a detective is frightening as he becomes involved in fighting a terrorist attack. Another case he investigates involves an elderly woman who is forced to defend herself. It turns out to be a rather amusing investigation. Dan's brother and aunt find living in Australia not the happy experience they expect and his ex-wife Emily takes up painting and finds a new love.
