Precious Embrace

Trust is a dangerous game.

A second divorce and single motherhood wasn't the vision Alison Hayes had for her future. Hooking up with Detective Johnny Rhay Bennett at a friend's wedding wasn't part of her plan either. She's shocked when months after their encounter, he breezes back into her life, flashing his charming, country-boy smile. The last thing she needs is another man in her life or another reason to make people talk.

But when Ali faces her worst nightmare, Johnny's the only person who can pull her out of her despair, forcing her to hold onto the hope of finding her missing child.

Johnny Rhay Bennett doesn't believe in love-at-first-sight, but after a one-night stand in paradise with Ali, he can't get her out of his head. With Nashville in his rear-view mirror, he's determined to make Ali his, even if it means moving to California. Convincing people of his good intentions for Ali and her boys isn't easy, but Johnny's up for the challenge. At least, he believes he's up for it until baby Micah is stolen right out from under his nose. Johnny has to keep it together and get that sweet little boy home safe before his vision of making them his family vanishes too.
