Tenderness softened his dark eyes
Gavin’s breath brushed Lindsey’s cheek as he leaned close to her. “Try to hang in there, okay?”
“Okay.” The look in his eyes destroyed her resolve to remain uninvolved with him.
He had a tough exterior that made him appear fearless. Emotionless. But she knew what it was like for him to lose control. Gavin had deep emotions—feelings he channeled into work instead of sharing with a woman.
“So you’re not giving up?” Lindsey asked, knowing her heart lay in her eyes.
“No.” His fingers wiped away a tear she hadn’t realized she’d shed. “You have to trust me, Lindsey. I’ll find our son.”

Dear Reader,
What is every woman’s worst nightmare? To lose a child or have a child kidnapped.
Real-life stories about missing children are a common occurrence, yet the mystery, the suspense, the emotions are universal. Every time I see a newspaper article or TV clip or a picture of a missing child, my heart wrenches for the family. And each time, I hope for a happy ending.
Having three children of my own, I can’t imagine missing any part of their lives—so my heart certainly went into writing Saving His Son. But in my version, you get the happy ending…plus a little romance!
Hope you enjoy.
