Healing Hands

Silence was his armor. Her voice became his heartbeat. Dr. Ethan Stone doesn't do noise. Since losing his wife, the brooding veterinarian has turned his ranch into a sanctuary of silence to protect his grieving, mute daughter. He needs a nanny who can follow the rules: No loud noises. No music. No questions. He definitely didn't need her. Jacqueline "Jax" is chaos wrapped in combat boots. She's loud, clumsy, and entirely wrong for the job. But she's also the first person who can get Ethan's daughter to smile. Ethan should fire her. Instead, he finds himself mesmerized by the way she hums in the kitchen and the sudden, terrifying rhythm she wakes up in his chest. Jax isn't just a bad nanny; she's a fugitive. A global pop icon on the run from a stalker, she's trading stadiums for stables to save her own life. Stone Creek was supposed to be a temporary hideout, and the grumpy vet was supposed to be just a boss. But as the silence in the house fills with melody, Jax realizes she's found the one thing fame couldn't buy: a home. But the world is loud, and Jax's secrets are about to turn the volume up to eleven. When the paparazzi descend on their quiet haven, Ethan must decide if he's ready to face the music, or if he'll retreat back into the silence that nearly destroyed him.
