THE PROTECTOR’S MISSION

Honoring a promise to a fallen comrade, former army medic David Evans heads to Arizona to check up on the soldier’s sister. But as his train pulls into Desert Valley, David witnesses a drug run gone wrong and narrowly avoids the bullets flying his way. And when the police show up, he discovers the investigating officer is the woman he’s supposed to look after. With a fiercely protective K-9 partner and a new badge, Whitney Godwin insists she can take care of herself and her infant daughter. But the criminals want both David and Whitney permanently silenced, so David will stop at nothing to protect the family he yearns to join.

Rookie K-9 Unit: These lawmen solve the toughest cases with the help of their brave canine partners

“You were amazing out there,” David said.

He meant that. “If anything had happened to you—”

Whitney shook her head. “Your overly protective attitude is kind of chivalrous, but I told you I had it covered. I can take care of myself.”

“And I told you, I wasn’t about to leave you there.”

“Would you have left a male officer?” she asked.

David glanced at her, hoping to make her understand. But she had him on that one.

“But because I’m a rookie and a woman, you felt the need to rush in and help me. Don’t do that again.”

Wow. She sure had a chip on her pretty shoulder. Seemed she also had a lot to prove. “It’s not in my nature to just leave a woman alone when she could be in danger. I’m not sorry I stayed.”

“Well, cowboy, I do appreciate your assistance, but hopefully there won’t be another time for you to play the hero.”

“Next stop, Desert Valley, Arizona.”

David Evans took a deep breath and got up to exit the passenger train, glad to finally be at his destination. Now if he could locate the woman he’d come here to see.

There were only two other people left in this car. Two men wearing baseball caps and dark shades. They’d kept to themselves most of the trip from Los Angeles, and so had David. There was something about these two.

They grabbed their carry-on duffels and rushed out of their seats so fast they stumbled upon the car attendant coming up the aisle. Startled, one of them dropped his tattered black bag, causing it to rip open.

Several colorful bundles covered in shrink-wrap crashed onto the floor. Everything after that happened so fast—David’s blood pressure spiked, and he felt himself slipping back into the arid mountains of Afghanistan.

The attendant’s surprise turned to realization, his gaze moving from the two men to the packages spilling from the duffel.
