The Lawman's Nanny Op — Carla Cassidy

"Stay with me, baby."

The kids at Portia Perez's day-care center are everything to her. She tried love once, but was badly bitten. Then in walks Deputy Caleb Grayson. Though Caleb hurt her once, she can't deny that seeing him still makes her ache for his touch.

Caleb's heart skips a beat when Portia enters the sheriff 's office. Suddenly, memories come rushing back. Portia didn't trust him then. Why should she now? But someone's out to harm her and Caleb can't walk away. Nor can he deny the claim she still has on his heart. Will Portia's stalker extinguish any chance of a happy reunion between these old flames?
