Thanks Eric and Diego.

I've used Diego's script from above with a slight adjustment to achieve
my need for the highlighted line to show as 'gray' in the
face-background line.

#+begin_src emacs-lisp
  (defun esf/get-visual-line-range ()
(set-face-background 'hl-line "gray30")
    (let (b e)
      (save-excursion
        (beginning-of-visual-line)
        (setq b (point))
        (end-of-visual-line)
        (setq e (+ 1 (point)))
        )
      (cons b e)))
  (setq hl-line-range-function #'esf/get-visual-line-range)
#+end_src

Thanks both.
Sharon.
