Double Click is a sequel to Click: An Online Love Story. In the first book, fast approaching her 30th birthday and finding herself not married, not dating, and without even a prospect or a house full of cats, Renee Greene reluctantly joined her best guy pal on a journey to find love online in Los Angeles. The story unfolded entirely through emails between Renee and her best friends as well as the gentlemen suitors she met online. Fraught with BCC's, FWD's and inadvertent Reply to All's, readers rooted for Renee to "click" with the right man.

Double Click, which follows the same all-email format, picks up with the same main characters six months after the original books ends. If the first book was about Renee’s search for love online, this book is about whether she and her friends have all found their “HEA” or “happily ever after.” Through a marriage proposal, wedding, new baby and unexpected love twist, Double Click allows readers to cheer, laugh, cry and cringe following the email exploits of Renee and friends.

Don’t think you can add a little “wink” icon and think all is forgiven. You’re cute in person but I’m royally pissed off and your charm isn’t translating into email.

C’mon. I’ve apologized over and over. Again, I’M SORRY!

I know. It’s not your fault. Work is important. Work is for our future. Blah, blah, blah. I don’t want to hear it right now. And don’t give me some B.S. that you’ll “make it up to me” because Friday night was the “making it up to me” night out.

I don’t know what else to do. I can’t continue to apologize. As you already stated – although I know you were being totally sarcastic – I have to work. It’s a start-up. We are trying to prepare for an IPO. I’m the CFO. My future at this company, in the workforce, and in general financially, is all riding on this.

Work is kicking my ass right now. And, as a result, it’s kicking yours, too, and I am sorry for that. But I don’t have a choice. You can either be understanding about this or be pissed. But I’m done apologizing.

So I’m not being understanding when I expect that my boyfriend will: a) spend time with me; b) keep his word; c) not fall asleep when we’re about to have sex. Should I go on?!?

One time. One time I was too tired to have sex. Do you know how many times you have told me you were too tired? And do I give you constant shit about it?

I know it’s been frustrating. But do you think I like working this much? Do you think I’d rather be sitting at my computer, crunching numbers and on endless conference calls than being with you? Is this really how I want to spend a Saturday?

These insanely long hours at work are temporary. But it is my “now.” And now I’ve got to get back to work. You can yell at me tonight if I make it home at all.
