In With A Bang! — Debra Salonen

Judy Banger has some es'plaining to do--to her boss and to the family of poor Buddy Fusco. As she waits for the other shoe to fall, she does what any woman in her position would do: remodels her bedroom. Bad ju-ju is bad ju-ju, right? But the hunky contractor who comes to bid on her job winds up laying so much more bamboo flooring. Is he the real thing or merely a distraction to keep her from freaking out over her late lover's son's promise to sue her into the poor house? Not a big stretch if she winds up losing her job. Her only hope is a bit of nefarious intervention by the kind and handsome Officer Candy..er, Canby.
