      Guilty until proven innocent

      Everyone in Fitzgerald Bay—except his law-enforcement family—is convinced Charles Fitzgerald murdered his children’s nanny. Condemned by public opinion, his only hope for a replacement nanny to take care of his two-year-old twins is newcomer Demi Taylor. But Demi has problems of her own…starting with amnesia. She doesn’t remember who she is, doesn’t know where she’s from—and has no idea why she always feels like someone is watching her. Is she in danger because of Charles? Or has someone sinister from her old life found her yet again?

      “I wouldn’t blame you if you wanted to quit.”

      Charles’s words jerked her attention back to him as she buckled her seat belt. “Quit? Because someone’s accusing you of something for which no one has any proof? I don’t think so.”

      She jumped when his palm hit the steering wheel. “I won’t let whoever is doing this send me running with my tail tucked. I won’t.”

      Charles turned, eyes narrowed as he drilled her with the intensity of his gaze. “I didn’t kill Olivia Henry. I don’t know who did. I just know I didn’t.”

      ONE

      Demi Taylor jumped as something scraped against the window behind her. Her book fell to the floor. Heart thumping, she bolted from the couch and spun to look at the window. She’d had it cracked to let in the sound of the ocean crashing on the cliffs just below the house but the blinds were closed and blocked her view.

       Which was good.

       If she couldn’t see out, no one could see in. Quickly, she moved the blinds, shut the window and latched it. Heart still racing, she simply stared at it for a moment as she told herself to calm down. Absently, she shoved up her wire-rimmed glasses back on her nose.

       What would someone be doing anywhere near that window? Or was she just being silly and it was a tree branch knocking against the pane?

       After all, this was her first week on
