Protector
by R.L. Merrill

Retired Navy SEAL James Morton is an expert in security and protection. When his cousin asks him to provide his expertise and services to the staff at Havenhart Academy---a boarding school for child victims of trauma---he doesn't count on working alongside folks who don't operate in his reality, like librarian Morgan Forrester. She's gorgeous, funny...and a witch? James deals solely in facts, science, and rules of engagement. There is no room for woo-woo in his life, but she knows things about his missing daughters. When he receives a mysterious phone call about his eldest, he'll have to look past his beliefs and accept that even a natural-born Protector needs help.

This book is part of the Gifted Series, and the action overlaps the storylines in both Healer and Connection. It can be read as a standalone, but for more details on this world of supernatural suspense, you may wish to read those books first. Protector was originally released as part of the Happily Ever After Collective.
