A Novella by

The small boy trotted up to him with a crumpled piece of paper in his hand while his mother stood patiently and watched. As the child spoke, Captain Caine McIntosh fell in love with the curly-haired tot who asked for a dad to help protect him and his mom. When his soft-spoken mother came to grab him, Caine was instantly attracted to the wide-eyed beauty with ebony skin. He vowed to show her that she didn't have to be strong all by herself and to have her love.

Danika Lionel didn't know what to think when the sexy solider showed up at her door bearing gifts. The neighborhood in Far Rockaway where she lived was not her first choice to live with her son. But being a single mom she took what she could get until she had the opportunity to do better. Caine offered her and Ryan a chance to spend Christmas without worrying about gun shots in the street, and she accepted. She barely put the pieces of her heart back together four years ago when Ryan was born. For his sake, she had to be strong. Did she dare give Caine a chance and let this new love in?
