A boy’s life is in danger…

And they must unite to protect him.

 

A past tragedy taught social worker Matti Colton to maintain a professional distance with the kids she rescues. But when six-year-old Sam is shot after his parents’ disappearance, Dr. Ryan Palmer enters her life…and forces her to start questioning her strict boundaries. Together they give the traumatized boy a sense of security. When it becomes evident the child is being stalked by killers, the two team up to guard him from danger. And the wall Matti’s built around her heart begins to crumble. Now they’ll do whatever it takes to protect Sam…and each other.
