Shore, whom Mason has been tailing since Shore murdered Mason's partner and a civilian three years prior. He keeps an eye on the "streetwalker" and when she is harassed by a young man, Mason comes to her rescue, gives her a warning, and drives her to the motel where she is staying.

Denton, Jamie - SEDUCTION OF SYDNEY, THE (Harl. Tempt. 748) (4)
Add one stubborn, independent veterinarian and one lovestruck, determined science professor, and you get a combustible combination! Sydney Travers' biological clock is ticking and
she wants a baby, but the words "I DO" are not in her vocabulary. When one disastrous blind date after another leaves her wondering if she'll ever find the perfect, no-ties kind of man
to father her child, she considers her other options. Meanwhile, her longtime friend, Professor Derek Buchanan, patiently waits for Sydney to recognize there's some mighty serious chemistry between them.
The free-spirited lady decides to take matters into her own hands, however; opting for artificial insemination. Unfortunately, on the very same day, Derek catches her at a particularly emotional moment when she is feeling much too vulnerable to resist falling into his comforting arms. They share a passionate evening, which Sydney regrets the following morning. But Derek is hopelessly in love, and he's jubilant when he discovers Sydney is pregnant...until she tells him he might not be the father. Sydney firmly believes marriage is not for her; and even when she begins to develop romantic feelings for her best friend, she can't bring herself to trust in love. Derek must convince her they belong together; and he sets out to do just that, with heartwarming and humorous results.
Although the heroine is stubborn beyond belief and puts the oh-so lovable hero through all kinds of grief as he tries to win her love and trust, you will find yourself cheering for him all the more. THE SEDUCTION OF SYDNEY is brimming with humor and passion, and it's such a joy to watch these two friends fall in love. Don't miss this little gem! ~June Folk for Bookbug on the Web
