Something Was Very Wrong... Spencer Halloway could feel it. You'd think a stranded woman on a deserted road would be glad to see the sheriff, but not this woman. There was a telltale look in Mercy's eyes--a look Spencer had seen before. A look that said she was on the run. The lawman in Spencer wanted to investigate Mercy and her little girl. But the man in him needed to believe that the long-legged beauty was innocent, despite his suspicions--despite her lies. Because Spencer was falling for the mysterious woman who called herself Mercy Royce--and for the child she claimed was her daughter.
