One

Respect was a touchy issue for Phoebe Schneider. She’d been a skilled physical therapist for several years, and since no one had twisted her arm and forced her to become a masseuse, it was pretty crazy to complain. Maybe a lot of guys assumed that being a masseuse meant she was loose as a goose, but guys, by their hormonal nature, always indulged in wishful thinking.

“Cold—” Dr. Reynolds started to interrupt.

The baby was indistinguishable from an inanimate doll, because his little arms and legs were as rigid as stone. “You already know his history. Found in a closet, half-starved. A birth mother incapable of mothering or even basic care. This was simply a baby
