title: The Sheriff's 6-Year-Old Secret
author: Clayton, Donna
description: Nothing could make Native American Nathan Thunder give up being a New York City police officer...except a little girl -- all alone in the world -- who needed a father. Returning to his Kolheek reservation to take on the safer job of sheriff, he didn't expect his heart would be in danger...to teacher Gwen Fleming!
  
  Nathan's six-year-old daughter, Charity, was a handful. Gwen found herself getting to know Nathan quite well during some pretty intense parent-teacher conferences, which soon started occurring after hours. Despite being wary of relationships, Gwen couldn't deny how her soul soared when Nathan was near. Was the attraction between the flame-haired beauty and the lawman destined to turn into love?
