Arden, Lincoln, and Kase run the Blacksburg office of Shadow Security. Their instincts won’t allow them to ignore their heavily pregnant new neighbor. After all, protecting people is how they’ve made their living. Well, that and the off-the-books contracts no one will ever know about, but this mission calls for a different kind of finesse.
With her due date only weeks away and still reeling from the loss of her daughter’s father, will Chelsea be able to let her walls down long enough to let anyone in? Or will danger catch up before her neighbors can convince her they won’t let her down?
When She Needs Them Most is a complete standalone with no cliffhanger. Extra info can be found in the Author's Note.
