Getting involved shouldn't be this dangerous…
 

Cate Sullivan is no damsel in distress. She's kept herself and her son safe for six long years. Built a good life in Indian Lake. But now that her drug-dealing ex-husband is moving his operation here, that life is about to explode.
 
Her instincts tell her to trust Detective Trent Davis. That he's more than just a handsome cop doing his duty. The former Green Beret has even formed a fast bond with her son. But there's something he's not telling her. Some darkness that keeps him from giving in to the feelings she knows are growing between them. Cate trusts Trent to keep her safe, but the real question is whether he'll trust himself with her heart.

Review

Protecting the Single Mom is the seventh book in the Shores of Indian Lake Series.  It is about Cate Sullivan who is on the run from her abusive and drug dealer ex-husband and former Green Beret now Detective Trent Davis.  They both have struggles, Cate is being stocked by her ex-husband and Trent is dealing with PTSD.  Lanigan’s characters are brought to life in a way that readers can easily relate to them.  Readers will also thoroughly enjoy the delightful and enjoyable family dynamic, including fantastic kid characters.  This story also has plenty of suspense and romance too.  Readers will not want to miss this next instalment in this engaging series.  I would recommend this novel to readers that enjoy contemporary romance stories with great family dynamics, as well as mystery.

I love this cover, as it reminds me of my hubby and I sitting in the park like that when we were dating. The child is so endearing. ❤️ Thank you. Blessings
