Mackenzie's Promise by Catherine Spencer (Large Print Harlequin)

Awesome story - be sure to clear time on your calendar because you won't want to stop reading 'til you get to the end ... and make a space on your keeper shelf because there's no doubt you'll want to read this one again. I've read it three times now and each time I enjoyed it as much as I did the first time! Description from the book back cover: Can he find the baby? Life has led Mac Sullivan to promise himself two things: never get involved with other people's problems - or with women. He's stuck to his guns until now, when Linda Carr begs him to find her baby niece. As an ex-police detective he has the skills to help her ... But what about the prospect of an emotional search in the company of a beautiful, vulnerable woman whom he's wanted since the moment he laid eyes on her? Mac knows there's no contest when it comes to one of his vows: a child is missing and he will track her down. But can he stick to his other promise - and keep Linda at arm's length?
