A Perfect Beast
Mr. Riordan set her teeth on edge

High-school biology teacher Rosemary Reid had always handled irate parents with professional aplomb--until Jonathan Riordan turned up. He'd come furiously to the defense of his difficult daughter, Tamsin. And made Rosemary blow her customary cool....

When the dust settled, Rosemary realized that Jonathan was no predatory beast, but a warm human being. Moreover, he was a widower with a daughter set on seeing him remarried.

Rosemary found herself tantalizingly drawn to Jonathan. Then she discovered that she'd have to fight against his self-condemning memories of his dead wife.. . .

Hero: Jonathan Riordan
Heroine: Rosemary Reid
