It hadn't been very easy for Rory, after her parents' divorce when she was a child, to live with her rather difficult mother - and with mother's brainwashing about the iniquities of men. They were all ruthless, selfish and dangerous, and women in general - and Rory in particular - would be better off without them. Now her mother was dead, and Rory was facing the world - and men - alone.

There was no denying his attraction. But was Rory in any state to defend herself against him?
