Nightwatch, The Defenders

After a fireman saves three young kids, he’ll do anything to keep them and their foster mother safe in this uplifting romantic suspense novel.

Fire captain Mitch Andrews can’t forget the three young children he saved from a fire—a suspicious fire that left them orphans. At least he knows that in the care of foster mother Jill Kirkpatrick, the little ones will be loved. He only wishes the sweet, strong widow would let him get closer to her.

But suddenly the kids—and Jill—are in terrible danger. And when one of the children goes missing, Mitch and Jill will risk everything to find her. As their investigation intensifies, Mitch proves his dedication to their makeshift family of five. A family worth keeping together forever.
