CAST OF CHARACTERS

Laurel Tate—Two years ago she walked out on Jericho because she thought it would save his life, but it only postponed the threat. Now the danger has returned with a vengeance, and it could cost her both Jericho and her son.

Maddox—The toddler at the center of a fierce custody battle. Maybe he’s even the reason for the danger.

Herschel Tate—Laurel’s father, who has some secrets of his own. He wants to raise his grandson, but just how far would he go to get custody?

Theo James—This businessman was once engaged to Laurel, and he plans to win her back with the promise that he can keep her and her son safe.

Dorothy James—Theo’s mother and business partner. She makes no attempt to hide her hatred for Laurel, but she claims she’s not behind the attacks that have sent Laurel on the run.
