Buddies know the unwritten rule: hands off your friends’ sisters.

Duncan MacGregor is reluctant to team up with his best friend’s little sister to search for her missing brother, but Bethany Redd’s determination to go it alone doesn’t leave him much choice. A Security Specialist, Duncan’s worked with plenty of beautiful women, so hands off should be easy. Especially under the circumstances... 

Bethany literally carries the result of her last relationship, and she blames pregnancy hormones for the absurd feelings she experiences for her brother’s gorgeous friend, adding yet another complication to her insanely complicated life. It’s her fault her brother disappeared, she has yet to tell her parents they’re about to be grandparents, and she has to prepare for the birth. Fall for Duncan? Now? Yeah, right.

As Bethany and Duncan battle their emotions and growing awareness of each other, Bethany becomes the latest target for danger, leaving Duncan desperate to protect her and her unborn child while searching for answers. Maybe Duncan came into her life at the right time to keep her safe but in the end--will his failure to find her brother tear them apart?
