Sometimes your reality can be scarier than fiction. Nick Weston thought his former girlfriend's unexpected marriage was his biggest problem. That is until a beautiful, brilliant doctor suspects him of murdering his daughter. Dr. Dakota Crenshaw is a DNA detective. She uses biological science to track down murderers. She knows what it's like to be the victim of a horrendous crime. Even so, sometimes, things are not as they seem. Nick tells Dakota he's never been a father. She's inclined to believe him, but if he didn't kill the precious toddler, who did? If you like romances filled with family drama and suspense, you'll love this clean and wholesome mystery. Finding Hope is the fourth book in the Hidden Hearts—Protection Unit series. It can be read as a standalone novel but is better understood when read as part of the series.
Author

Mary Crawford has been lucky enough to live her own version of a romance novel. She’s married to the guy who kissed her at summer camp. He told her on the night they met that he was going to marry her and be the father of their children. Eventually, she stopped giggling when he said it and he had the last laugh as they celebrate three decades of marriage. They have two children. The oldest is a Doctor of Osteopathy. He is across the United States completing his residency, but when he’s done, he is going to come back to Oregon and practice Family Medicine. Their youngest son is in high school and hopes to be an EMT when he grows up. Mrs. Crawford writes full time now. She has written and published over thirty books and has several more underway. She volunteers her time to a variety of causes and has worked as a Civil Rights Attorney and diversity advocate. Mrs. Crawford spent many years working for various social service agencies before becoming an attorney. In her spare time, she loves to cook, decorate cakes and of course, obsessively, compulsively read.
