Book 2 of the IMS gives us Shirley's story; she is another teacher and a friend of Maggie's. Maggie has been sending e-mails and they have been talking on Skype and Maggie is pushing hard for Shirley to try the Intergalactic Matchmaking Services for a possibleromantic interest. After promising Maggie, Shirley completes the tests and interviews and is waiting to meet the counselor Claire.But her life is about to take a dramatic step backward into terror. More than 5 years ago, Shirley was attacked by her ex-boyfriend after she broke up their relationship. When she receives a letter that lets her know that he has been released, she is hoping that he won't try to take up where he left off - trying to kill her.Shirley is astonished when Maggie arrives along with the counselor for her interview. She's even more astonished when she finds out just who her love interest might be.Book 2 of this series was just as great but the emotional impact was greater. Shirley had a lot to contend with and life just kept getting more intense. Her friend Anna was in an abusive relationship and it was costing Anna's daughter Heather. Her ex is stalking her again and just won't take no for an answer. The police station in her town was very apathetic about her 911 calls and oh yes, her potential love interests were aliens.  What could be worse?
