She’s the one woman who can unlock his heart…if solving the case doesn’t tear them apart first.

Huxley

As Silver Springs' sheriff, my sole focus is the safety and welfare of my citizens. I've dealt with every conceivable crime, from murder to drug offenses and even dog-napping. But when I get a call about an abandoned baby in my jurisdiction, I know I'm out of my element.

Social worker Emmie Jensen is the only person who can help me find the child's missing parents, but her eternal optimism and soft spot for every case she takes on is... annoying. So why can't I stop thinking about the curvy, brown-eyed beauty under me in my bed making babies of our own?

Emmie

I've been in love with the gruff, grumpy, and downright gorgeous sheriff for longer than I care to remember. But despite his dedication to the town's residents, Huxley keeps everyone at an emotional distance and his heart locked up tight.

When a baby girl is discovered in a local park, we're forced to put our differences aside and work together to locate the missing parents. But as our investigation progresses, an undeniable attraction blurs the lines between business and pleasure, and each stolen glance and accidental touch ignites a fire neither of us anticipated. As we inch closer to discovering the truth, I realize that our hearts may have been leading us in a different direction all along.
