With nowhere to turn and alone at Christmas, she's grateful for the chance for a job in the local hotel, until she finds herself stuck in the middle of a brazen theft. The town's sheriff doesn't seem to want her help, but Jessica has never been one to take 'no' for an answer. Not even from handsome young William Stanton. Sheriff William Stanton is finding himself in turns increasingly frustrated and intrigued with this meddlesome young girl. And when she entangles herself in his investigation, he finds himself fearing for her, as well. Jessica Downs has crept into his heart, and her curiosity could lead her to harm-something he vows to prevent. But when Jessica sees her chance to expose the criminal, she takes it, despite William's warnings. And that chance puts her in more danger than either ever expected.
