From the award-winning author of Hurricane Reese, contributing author in Robyn Peterman's Magic and Mayhem Universe, and the creator of Rock 'n' Romance favorites Haunted and Teacher comes a new supernatural romance that will make you swoon and shiver.

Patience, extreme vigilance, and discretion required. Generous compensation guaranteed Veteran teacher and counselor Delaney Frost accepts a job at Havenhart Academy and soon learns that not only are her new charges “gifted”—but that within her resides a power so rare and precious it can be used to heal others. When danger arrives at the academy gates, Delaney and her mysterious, yet alluring boss will fight to protect the children from a megalomaniac out for revenge and the destruction of all she holds dear. Welcome to Havenhart Academy.

From the author of Healer and Connection, a 2023 Daphne Du Maurier Award Finalist, comes a tale of supernatural suspense where two souls with opposing world views must work together to save victims of human trafficking from the clutches of those wielding darkness for their personal gain. Retired Navy SEAL James Morton is an expert in security and protection. When his cousin asks him to provide his services to the staff at Havenhart Academy—a boarding school for child victims of trauma—he doesn’t count on working alongside folks who don’t operate in his reality, like librarian Morgan Forrester. She’s gorgeous, funny…and a witch? James deals solely in facts, science, and rules of engagement. There is no room for woo-woo in his life, but she knows things about his missing daughters. When he receives a mysterious phone call about his eldest, he’ll have to look past his beliefs and accept that even a natural-born Protector needs to ask for and accept help, and that sometimes opening yourself to new possibilities can bring about great rewards...and love. This book is part of the Gifted Series, and the action overlaps the storylines in both Healer and Connection. It can be read as a standalone, but for more details on this world of supernatural suspense, you may wish to read those books first. Protector was originally released as part of the Happily Ever After Collective.
