Wife said temp was a little warmer that normal on her way home from work. Now the next day the car will not start. Any help is greatly appreciated!

The temp may be a red herring, perhaps not. Start with the easy stuff to diagnose. Pull a spark plug or the coil wire and check for spark as it is cranked. Check for fuel pressure at the end of the fuel rail. Lastly do a compression check. If the car really did overheat it could have blown a head gasket which normally shows up with a simple compression check.
