He's a natural born leader and as Commander of a Seal team, spent most of his adult life doing just that. Now he's training men to become fighting machines -- still in command. At least of the men in his charge. When it come to his love life, he is about to find himself spinning out of control, and he's not quite sure what to do about it. It's rare he meets a woman he wants more than a night or two of pleasure with. Rarer still to find one that intriques him. To meet a woman who surpasses those expectations is unexpected, exciting. And something he can't let himself indulge in. He won't let himself become involved. She has other ideas.

There's just something about a man who can dance and Mason James has the kind of moves that turn a woman's thoughts to what that body of his could do off the dance floor. Mason's been breaking hearts so long it's part of his nature. There's not a woman he can't seduce. When he shows up in Cotton Creek the women perk right up. And take a sudden interest in dance lessons. No one realizes that teaching dancing is as far from the truth of who he really is as it gets. In all honesty, he's not sure what he is anymore. He came back to Cotton Creek because it's the only real home he's ever known. He didn't expect to like it, and sure didn't expect to have a baby left on his doorstep, or to meet someone who made him wonder if it wasn't time he stopped letting women chase him and do some chasing of his own.

This original and important work examines the response of the Catholic Church to the partition of Ireland and the establishment of a separate northern state.Based on ecclesiastical archives in Ireland, Britain and Rome, and public records in Belfast, Dublin and London, it is presented against a background of antagonism between the Catholic Church and Ulster Unionists in the early part of the twentieth century. The Church's response was one of concern for both the religious and political rights of Catholics, and they took upon themselves the role of spokesmen for a beleaguered Catholic community.The book explores the difficulties of the Catholic Church in coming to terms with the existence of the northern state, examines the inter-relationship between religious, political and personal factors and highlights the varying attitudes of leading church figures. It assesses the political implications of humanitarian gestures, and the significance of the Church's statements in promoting certain views of the northern state and how such statements were perceived. Mary Harris argues that the Church developed as an integral part of northern political culture. Significant religious issues, such as education, were instrumental in detaching Catholics from the northern community at large, and in creating a self-contained Catholic community.
