FIGHTING FOR YOU by Robin Patchen, Reviewed by Rebecca Maney

The Wright Heroes of Maine Book 8

REBECCA'S REVIEW:
"Who was the pretty lady?"

Noah Aylett's business driven lifestyle was upended the moment his wayward brother deposited a four year old daughter into Noah's care. Facing a particularly crucial crossroads involving a lucrative merger for his family's tech company, Noah decides to hire a live-in nanny to care for his precious Charlie-Bear during the daytime hours. Imagine his surprise when a lovely young woman knocks on his door.

Delaney Wright is determined to make a life for herself without the help of her family or their money. Upon arrival in a quaint coastal Virginia community, she seeks employment based on her vast experience as a nanny. After being summarily dismissed from the Aylett estate, Delaney is plagued with doubts about her decision to leave home, when a chance encounter in a local park brings her back to the attention of Noah Aylett.

Sounds like a sweet contemporary romance, right? On one level it certainly is exactly that. However, rumbling beneath the surface are multiple unseen fissures just waiting to crack wide open, challenging everything and everyone that Noah and Delaney have come to hold dear.

"A woman was standing on the sidewalk. She held a handgun - aimed at Delaney."

BackCover Blurb:
She's running from her past. He's protecting his future. Together, they must fight for what matters most.

Delaney Wright has always believed the best of everyone—even when she shouldn’t. After her ex-boyfriend’s shocking betrayal, Delaney flees Shadow Cove, determined to rebuild her shattered confidence. She lands a nanny position in Virginia, caring for precious four-year-old Charlotte. Her new employer is everything she should avoid—wealthy, worldly, and far too handsome for Delaney’s peace of mind. But this job is not the haven it seems.

Noah Aylett is desperate to hang onto his family’s legacy, despite a stalker who’s getting bolder every day. When his brother abandons his daughter, Noah takes in Charlotte, hiring a live-in nanny to give his niece stability. Though Delaney is young and attractive—the worst combination for a man trying to avoid scandal—her gentle touch breaks through Charlotte’s grief. But Noah needs more than just a nanny to secure his niece’s future. He must complete a business merger amidst compounding danger. Someone is determined to sabotage the deal…no matter what it takes.

When threats close in on all sides, Noah and Delaney must join forces to protect the little girl they both love. Trusting each other might be the only way to save Charlotte—and themselves.
