When wolf alpha Nox Thryen's brother and sister-in-law go missing, their toddler becomes his responsibility. What does a bachelor know about dirty diapers, snotty noses, and baby puke? He's in deep doo-doo and totally clueless. He needs help. And when his eyes land on his new nanny, he knows one thing for sure, she's his. After years of hard work, Kelli Wells now owns her own child-care agency. Receiving a desperate call from a non-client for help, she takes pity on him and agrees to assist until a proper replacement can be found. When he opens his front door, his gorgeous eyes make her think a substitute could wait—like forever. As his new nanny sweeps in and takes control of the situation, he realizes she's more than just his mate. She's beautiful, smart, and has a loving heart. So when she endangers herself to help him find the toddler's parents, he's frantic to save all of them now. If he can't rescue his mate and his family from a psychotic slave driver, Nox and the little girl will find themselves both orphaned without the ones they love the most.
