Enjoy a special 15th anniversary bonus story from Love Inspired Historical, An Enduring Love by Jillian Hart
The wistful, almost yearning expression on Ryanâs handsome face as sheâd held baby Georgina had confused her.
Then it was back to the coldness in his blue eyes and the hard set to his jaw that sheâd grown used to over the past six months as sheâd pressed for more to be done in bringing her cousinâs murderer to justice.
âIf you hadnât been here, Meghan, I would have been able to control the situation.â
His saying the words aloud felt like a physical blow. Little Georginaâs life hung in the balance. Because of her. She squeezed her eyes tight. âPlease, dear Lord, keep baby Georgina safe. Please let us find her.â
When she opened her eyes, she found Ryan staring at her with an arrested look on his face.
âWhy is the missing baby so important to you?â Ryan asked.
An ambulance roared to a halt a few feet away, saving her from answering.
But soon sheâd have to tell him.
