A seasoned cop becomes the target of a killer. And so does the woman he’s falling for.
Detective Lieutenant Thomas Watson had been off air force active duty so long, he thought he was safe. Until a gunman crashes his daughter’s wedding, reawakening the warrior inside him. He hires nurse Jane Boyle to care for his injured father so he can focus on bringing the gunman to justice. While Jane is the ideal caretaker, her dark past has landed her in witness protection. And the more she’s embraced by this family of cops, the more danger she’s in. For a shadow from Thomas’s own past might be willing to lend Jane’s stalker a helping hand…

“You’ve been shot.”
She unbuttoned his cuff and gently pushed the plaid chambray up his arm to inspect the graze across his skin.
“I’m so sorry you got hurt. I never meant—”
As she turned the wounds into the light, their heated words topped each other’s. “You could have been run down. You could have been shot. When I give you an order, I expect you to—”
“Screw your order. I won’t let anyone else get hurt. He was after me.”
“—do what I say and stay safe. He was after me.”

“It’s okay, Dad.” Olivia Mary Watson had packed up all her tomboy clothes, her gun and her badge and put on a beaded ivory gown that made her look every inch the grown woman he reluctantly admitted she had become. She reached up to cup his cheek and smiled, reminding Thomas of the wife he’d lost to a drugged-up thief’s bullet when Olivia was a toddler. “I will always be your little girl.”
She’d stopped being his little girl the day she’d become a Kansas City cop, like him, his father and her three older brothers.
