Shannon
Nolan thought she’d escaped a nightmare world of ruthless crime - until her son
is kidnapped! With nowhere else to run and no one else to trust, she puts her
life in the hands of her boss, firefighter Daniel Jennings.
“You need to call the cops,”
Daniel said flatly.
“I can’t.”
“They took your son,” he said,
incredulous.
“I know!” She bit her lip against
another outburst.
“What aren’t you saying?”
“He called,” she said. “When I
got here. When I walked into the backyard, he called and said...”She could
barely get the words out. “He said he’d send Aiden back to me in pieces if I
involved the police.”
“Oh, Shannon.” He rubbed her
shoulder.
The immense sympathy in those two
words overwhelmed her. She didn’t know if she should lean into him or run away.
“Thank you for helping her and fixing everything.”
“I followed you to help you,” he
said, a lick of impatience in his voice. “You need to report this.”
“If I do and they hurt my baby,
it will be my fault. I can’t live with that.”
“What’s really going on?”
“I don’t know much more than you
do.” She didn’t realize she was crying again, or that Daniel had her wrapped in
his arms until the fabric under her cheek was damp.
“Will you trust me?” Daniel asked
when she quieted.
It seemed she already did.
