I Won't Let Them Hurt You

About the Book

Katie really cares about Justin, the cute two-year-old she baby-sits. But she can’t help but notice the changes in him. He’s quieter now, and he sometimes calls himself a “bad boy.” Then Katie starts to notice bruises on Justin. She explains them away—until the day when she has to face the possibilities and make a very difficult decision. Who will believe what she suspects? What if she’s wrong? Maybe she shouldn’t say anything. But little Justin might be in real danger. And maybe Katie is the only one who can protect him.
