Protective Lawman — Janie Crouch

Protecting her once cost him everything
Now danger has found her again

Deputy Bailey Masters doesn't want her former mentor Aaron Ward's help. But when she's threatened by those she thought she could trust, the former-cop-turned-carpenter doesn't hesitate to hide her. To offer sanctuary while she heals. Last time Bailey was in danger, Aaron did the unthinkable to her career. He vows this time will be different, even as their safety is under attack. Because only by winning her trust can they resolve their lingering feelings…and end the corruption they've uncovered before those at the top silence them both.
