Sworn To Protect. Shirlee McCoy

      

      Mission: Keeping Baby Safe

      The exciting True Blue K-9 Unit series conclusion

      Her husband’s murderer has his sights set on Katie Jameson. With the killer on the loose again, she’ll have to trust K-9 officer Tony Knight to protect her and her baby from the stalker who will stop at nothing to get his way. It will take all of Tony’s and his furry partner’s skills to find the killer before it’s too late.

      Aside from her faith and her family, there’s not much SHIRLEE MCCOY enjoys more than a good book! When she’s not hanging out with the people she loves most, she can be found plotting her next Love Inspired Suspense story or trekking through the wilderness, training with a local search-and-rescue team. Shirlee loves to hear from readers. If you have time, drop her a line at [email protected].

      “You don’t think he’s out there, do you?” Katie asked.

      Suddenly a light flashed, and the small storage shed that abutted the fence burst into flames.

      Shocked, Katie jumped back, instinctively covering her belly as Tony’s arms gently wrapped around her to steady her.

      “Get your cell phone, go in the bathroom, lock the door and call 911. Don’t open the door until I get back.” He hooked Rusty to the leash and walked to the door.

      She was still standing in the hall, feet planted on the floor.

      “Go. I’ll be back as soon as I can,” Tony said, hand on the doorknob, dark eyes staring into hers.
