Lone Oak Feud (Harlequin Heartwarming) - Plot & Excerpts
Lindsey walked into her office after a depressing morning. First she’d met with a boy at the middle school, along with the guidance counselor and his dad. The dad was bad news. It’d only be a matter of time before they had to get the kid away from his father if Lindsey’s hunch was right. She hoped she was wrong but her instincts were fairly reliable. Then she’d visited Billy, the six-year-old who’d just been placed in the group home two days ago. He should’ve been in first grade this school year, but it turned out his mother didn’t think school was too important. Apparently she’d left him by himself regularly. For days on end. She’d scare him to death before she left, threatening to beat him if he set foot outside. Then she’d come home and beat him anyway, judging by the marks on the boy’s body. Lindsey sat down slowly at her desk, her heart heavy. As was usually the case, it was a good thing to get this child out of his home, away from the people who hurt him in so many ways.
