Can two polar opposites work together to secure Sherlock's home?

Social worker Wilhelmina Walker did not rise to her position as head of the Children's Welfare Agency by taking needless chances. When Michael Ryce, a reckless and arrogant detective who's never met a rule he didn't break, attempts to adopt ten-year-old T.C. Sherlock, Willie is outraged. T.C. needs stability and a worthy role model, not a man who lives to break the rules.

Michael Ryce knows what it's like to grow up on the streets without a safety net. And when he meets the young T.C. he recognizes a kindred spirit. Determined to give him the childhood he never had, Ryce is infuriated when Willie refuses to consider his application. But when a crisis forces them to work together to save T.C., Willie and Ryce realize that not only do they love T.C., they just might be starting to love each other.
