About this ebook
To protect an innocent child,
danger will follow them at every turn.
Child Protective Services agent Carys Aldric is caught between doing what’s right and following protocol. Especially when it comes to rancher Blaize Wilde, the potential father of an orphaned baby, and hopefully the kind of man worth breaking the rules for. But unraveling the web of deception surrounding Blaize’s connection to the baby puts them straight in the line of fire, dodging bullets and searching for safety. Danger closes in from a past that refuses to stay buried—and a mystery mother who may have secrets of her own.
From Harlequin Intrigue: Seek thrills. Solve crimes. Justice served.

4 1/2 stars. I loved Carys and how much she cared about people. She was willing to break work rules in order to help one little baby. She was smart, and I enjoyed how she learned what she was actually capable of. Blaize had just come home and was feeling overwhelmed. He cared very much about his grandmother and the ranch. He was gallant, intelligent, patient, and very caring, even thinking of ways to help and/or keep the baby. Secrets lead to danger, faked death, and almost real death.
