MISSING CHILD
Someone wants Mississippi prosecutor Ashlynn Morris dead...and they’ve taken her son to get to her. The only person she can trust to get him back is his father, a man who doesn’t even know about their secret child. When grief and survivor guilt pushed army ranger Garrett Lewis to run out on their wedding five years ago, he knew he was leaving behind the love of his life. But a son? Finding out he’s a father has him reeling, especially since his little boy is missing. But now the tormented ex-soldier has a new mission, one that can’t fail. Protect the woman he’s never stopped loving...and bring her son—their son—home for Christmas.
A flicker of fear raced through her.
Beside her, Garrett reached for his gun. “Stay here,” he commanded. “Someone tried to kill you today. He could be back to finish the job.” He pushed open her front door and entered the house.
But she wasn’t going to obey his command. Her son was inside that house!
“Jacob!” She ran past Garrett and inside.
“Ashlynn, wait.”
Sounds from the TV greeted her, but she heard nothing else. The house was too quiet. Panic ripped through her and she searched in a haze of anxiety and fear...but he wasn’t anywhere to be seen.
“Jacob!”
She rushed into the next room and tripped over something. A leg jutting out from behind the couch. The nanny. Ashlynn didn’t need to check for a pulse to know she was dead.
Garrett grabbed her shoulders and she sank into his arms. The nanny was dead, murdered, and Jacob... If something had happened to him...
Anguish rushed through her.
Where was her child?
Thanks so much for reading Garrett and Ashlynn’s story!
Have you ever felt like God just wasn’t on your side? Sure you have. We all know that feeling. Life is hard and in some seasons of our lives we get beaten up by circumstances. It is so easy to forget that God is present and active in our lives. This is how Ashlynn feels at the beginning of the story. Everything she has fought so hard for all her life has been ripped away from her, and she is so angry and bitter at God that she cannot imagine putting her trust in Him. But Garrett’s reappearance in her life at just the time she needs him helps show Ashlynn that God, indeed, is with her and that He works all things for good.
In Deuteronomy 2:15 God assured Moses and the Israelites that He had been with them throughout their forty years of wandering in the desert. We have the same assurance that God is with us, watching over us and providing for us.
