Child In Jeopardy by Delores Fossen

A newborn’s mother has been murdered...could the baby be the next target?

Deputy Slater McCullough, a confirmed bachelor, is stunned when security specialist Lana Walsh shows up on his doorstep with an infant. The baby’s mother has been murdered and for mysterious reasons has claimed Slater is the father. When Lana reveals that someone is after them, Slater realises the mother must have wanted him to protect the baby. But from whom? As they hide out under police protection, the unacknowledged heat that has always simmered between Slater and Lana threatens to become a fatal distraction. As much as he is a reluctant father, Lana knows this lawman won’t let harm come to this child...or her.
