But when he suddenly finds himself responsible for a motherless five-year-old, his world is turned upside down. What does he know about caring for a little girl?

Blue doesn’t do complicated. It’s too much trouble and there are too many risks. And the biggest risk of all is something she’s guarded for years, her heart.
