Connor had to get help for his mamma. Mr. O had hurt them both bad this time but they still got away. And Connor was determined that he would never catch them again. Now if only he could get to the clinic to get some medicine they could move on.

At seventeen, Charlotte or Charlie to her friends was tossed out of her home because she’d gotten ‘soiled’ her mother said. A slut like her didn’t need to be around her good friends from the church. Charlie didn’t care, she had Connor and that’s all that mattered. Until one night a man decided that he wanted her. When he took her then five year old son hostage, she had no choice but to move in with him. Over the next few years she and Connor lived in horror.

Damon just wanted to go to dinner with his brothers and celebrate his birthday. When a call from the lobby where his practice was came to tell him about a runaway, he simply let Morgan handle it. That was until an urgent call with her sobbing brought him to her. The little boy had been beaten and badly. And his mamma he told Dr. Damon ‘was way worser’.

Charlie had no trust for the handsome doctor and the tight knit family. But no matter how hard she tried to not get close to them, they pulled both her and her son into their hearts. She was so afraid that when Mr. O found them he’d hurt the Grant Brothers as well.

What she didn’t expect was just how much the love of one man could do for you and the help of a family, especially one like the Grants could be so loving.
