“As soon as Trace said the words the cell phone on the coffee table rang and a cry echoed from down the hall. He stopped and reached for the phone. “I’m sorry,” he said. “I have to get this. Do you mind checking on the baby for me?” “Right.” Nikki surged to her feet and tugged on the short hem of her vest. She had the job!

Nikki could hardly wait to tell her sister. “Which room?” H...e nodded toward the hall. “Last door on the right.” Turned out Nikki needed the directions, because the crying had stopped. She found that odd. In her experience babies wanting attention usually got louder, not quieter. She pushed open the half-closed door and peered inside.
