Silent Menace
CPA Hailey Nieland is trying to rebuild life as a single mother after her late husband's criminal activity made her unwelcome in their small community. A promising new client becomes a source of danger when she discovers irregularities in the accounts, drawing the attention of someone who wants the numbers to stay hidden. Former bodyguard Peter Lewis is struggling with failure from his last protection assignment but cannot ignore the threats forming around Hailey. This romantic suspense combines financial investigation, a hearing-impaired toddler, bodyguard instincts, redemption, and a cover-up that turns accounting discrepancies into a lethal problem.
