Sheriff Ford Maguire had no time for romance. Keeping the peace in Clover, South Carolina, kept him busy, while reminding him that most people weren't to be trusted. Them single mom Sophie Reynolds came to town, testing Ford's notions about love. All Sophie had left in the world was her infant daughter—a child she would protect with her life. She had no intention of getting romantically involved, especially with the town sheriff, the one person who could uncover her startling secret. But Ford wasn't the type of man a woman could resist for long.
