Badly enough that when the babysitter she’d scheduled towatch her ten-month-old son bailed on her at the last second, she strapped Mason into the backseat ofher car and headed down to the Seattle harbor with him.Fifteen minutes later, she pulled into the parking lot beside Dylan’s boathouse. Mason, who hadbeen happily gnawing on his favorite stuffed giraffe during the drive, immediately lifted his arms toher when she opened the rear door.“I’ve got to unstrap you first, cutie.” The second he was free, he all but jumped into her arms.She closed her eyes as she caught him and cuddled him close. The past year and a half hadn’t beeneasy, but she wouldn’t trade her son, or her immense love for him, for anything.Grace had plenty of regrets...but Mason wasn’t one of them.She was just shifting him to her hip so that she could straighten out her navy-blue suit when hewhimpered. “Do you want to take your giraffe with you?” She handed it to him, but he batted it out ofher hand. “We’ll have to clean him before you put him back in your mouth,” she said in a gentle voiceas she picked up the stuffed toy from the ground and put it into the car, “but don’t worry, I haveanother one of your favorite toys.” Mason immediately began to shake the multicolored circular rattleshe handed him.Grace did her best to adjust her clothes, then ran a hand through her long, dark hair in an effortto look as professional as possible while she spoke with Dylan. At least, she hoped she was going tospeak to him today, given that he hadn’t returned a single one of her phone messages over the pastweek. She would have sent him an email if she could have found a website or email address for him,but he was one of the few people on the planet who didn’t seem to have either. Which was, she’ddecided, just plain weird. How did he run his business if people couldn’t reach him?“Time to go track down the elusive Mr. Sullivan,” she said to Mason as they headed togetheracross the parking lot.Her son bore down hard with his gums on his toy by way of response, but it was good enoughfor Grace. She’d become a master at one-sided conversations during the past ten months, and it wasamazing just how much she could find to say on her end, even when the only response she ever gotwas a gurgle, giggle, or wail.“Let’s pray that he’s nice and willing to cooperate.”The strange thing was how little information she’d been able to find about Dylan. Nointerviews, nothing where he was talking himself up. What kind of man didn’t want to promotehimself? Especially when he was not only one of the most respected wooden-sailboat makers on theWest Coast, and a multi-winning sailboat racer, but he was also related to some of the wealthiest—and most well-known—people in the world, including a movie star, two rock stars, and a billionaireCEO.It was only one of the many questions she needed to ask him.But while she hadn’t been able to find much written information about him on the Internet, she’dfound plenty of pictures. Grace had vowed never to be wowed by a pretty face ever again, but thatdidn’t mean she didn’t notice a good-looking guy when she saw one. And there was no doubtwhatsoever that Dylan was a very attractive man.Still, she couldn’t help but think he’d be a heck of a lot more attractive if he actually returnedone of her phone calls.
