Two people who share a past—and a determination to protect one little boy—find themselves facing off with a killer!

Kansas City has no better guardian than Sawyer Kincaid. The decorated police officer has a family legacy to uphold and a reputation that none could rival. Until one distress call ignites the most personal case of his career. He’d saved Melissa Teague’s life once—long before she had a son. The boy would be safe with Sawyer, but she isn’t so sure how she could bear his presence again. A man that powerful— however gentle—scared her, no matter how right Sawyer fit. But this time her protector would not walk away, not with his family’s lives on the line. This is his sworn duty.
