Keeping Caroline (Survivor & Savior Duet #2)

Prologue

The Phoenix

Pushing a chair against the door and wedging its back under the doorknob, I let out a shaky breath and desperately reached for my phone. I was not sure why my instincts led my fingers to pull up the contact info for someone I had only spoken to a few times. Although he had been working with my brother for a long time, I had only met him when he came into the store, but he was someone I knew could help me—or at least I hoped he could.

Swallowing back my hesitation, I clicked on his contact information and quickly typed a message. “Hey, it’s Caroline. I think I need your help.”
