Cul De Sac Diaries

What does an intrusive but popular neighbor living in a cul de sac on Philadelphia’s Main Line, a borrowed Mercedes, a trunk full of secrets, murder for hire, and a 20-year-old woman from the Germantown section of Philadelphia have in common?

The night of her employer’s fiftieth birthday party, a window of opportunity fell into Kenda’s lap, something she didn’t grasp at first. Employed with the Cain family for three years, Kenda does her job without complaints (at least not in front of the Cains). Although loyal, respectful, and hardworking, housekeeping is not her lot in life. Ambition would take the King High School graduate out of Philadelphia and to one of the finest interior design schools in New York, if only she had the money.

She planned to attend school without borrowing the funds. A new car couldn’t hurt either. Her mother, Doyle, desperately wanted to expand her business. Quinn is Kenda’s best friend from grade school who dreamed of a trip to London and Paris.

The lucrative opportunity had great potential, but Quinn’s assistance was necessary for it to work. Timing is everything. When presented with the proposition, sworn to secrecy, Quinn didn’t hesitate with her reply. She saw travel abroad in her eyes, a French gentleman kissing her in the moonlight, and a tour of the Queen’s palace. Danger and death never crossed her mind.

Both ladies threw caution to the wind, not fully understanding that they were risking their lives. Will ambition and romance have to wait a while?

Gibson waited habitually each evening in the patient lounge for Marcia after work to drive her home. One day, she’s forced to stay after hours to resolve a flooding issue in the main bathroom. Who in the world disposed of a sausage sandwich in the toilet? Out Of Order.

In Country Date, Lorenzo agreed to a date in the country with Victoria, even though he’s allergic to certain fresh produce. Perhaps he should have informed her to avoid the embarrassing bout of sneezing during dinner. About that high-pitched sneeze… Is someone stepping on a cat’s tail, or did someone see a mouse?

Melia and Nolan were on a first date. Nolan has an identical twin brother, Hanson. Spotted while standing in the movie line, the man immediately crossed the street to greet and reconnect with his college buddy. Intruding on their date, the friend did everything he could to jog Nolan’s memory by reminiscing about their wild days on Havre University’s campus ten years ago. He followed the couple to dinner, where more stories were told. Who is this guy? (The Strange Night).

Blanca is a Pennsylvania Commonwealth National Guard reservist who happens to be rather tall. Before being deployed to Stroudsburg, Pennsylvania, for a month, she visited the base to pick up her boots. Given the wrong footwear by mistake, it was too late to return them before deployment when the error was discovered. What happens when a woman wears the same size boot as her blind date? Are they his boots? Did Boone give Blanca the wrong boots by mistake or on purpose? Little did she know that her date, Toliver, was also a Pennsylvania Commonwealth National Guard reservist deployed to Stroudsburg, Pennsylvania as well. Boone, Toliver’s best friend, knew exactly what he was doing. Wishing he was a fly on the wall at the concert tonight, he laughed, imagining their conversation about the mix-up in Military Couple.
