“Ma’am, can you hear me?” Whit studied the woman, who clung to the child. Harry’s child. Whit’s half niece.

A child Whit hadn’t met because of the complications of family.

“Ma’am—”

She gasped. “Don’t touch her.”

Although he heard a siren wailing in the distance, he knew it would take a few minutes before they arrived on the scene.

A lot could happen in a few minutes.

It sounded like the perps had already done some major damage, breaking into the house and potentially shooting his half brother and wife.

Whit had to shelve his panic over losing his brother and focus on protecting the baby and the woman clinging to her.

The baby squeaked. She was his blood, his family, and Whit wouldn’t let anything happen to her.

Apparently, the nanny felt the same way.

“Ma’am, my name is Brody Whittaker. I’m in town to visit Harry and I heard the gunshots. I’d like to help.”

That got her to open her eyes.
